North Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service (NYFRS) revolutionized its data analysis capabilities through collaboration with Ordnance Survey (OS) and adoption of geospatial technology. Confronted with challenges in efficiently assessing safety in high-rise buildings under the Building Risk Review (BRR) program, NYFRS aimed to streamline its operations. By harnessing OS Select+Build, a specialized geospatial data access tool, NYFRS dramatically reduced data acquisition times from days to minutes. The seamless integration of geospatial technology significantly enhanced public safety efforts and optimized emergency response, underscoring the transformative impact of technological advancements on community protection.
