A VOTIX situation room during a flood rescue: the shared map with the stranded vehicle, the boat route, and the staging area, the drone and firefighter video, and the team chat.

Part of VOTIX

One of four products:

Situation Rooms is the front door of the platform. Stream, Manage, and Fly sit on the same login.

  2. Stream

    Carry the live video in True Real-Time.

  3. Manage

    Run the program, the fleet, and the records.

  4. Fly

    Fly the drone and command the dock.

The problem

When the video and the map live apart, nobody sees the same thing.

An operation is under way, and the people who have to act on it are spread across a building, a vehicle, and the site itself.

  • Without Situation Rooms:
    The person in charge narrates.Everyone else acts on the description, not the picture.
    With Situation Rooms: Everyone works from the video.Drone and camera video, the map, and the team, in one room.
  • Without Situation Rooms:
    Two tools, two pictures.Each person is watching a different screen.
    With Situation Rooms: One picture, one map.Everyone sees the same pin the moment it drops.
  • Without Situation Rooms:
    The partner is still waiting for access.The other agency and the specialist are outside the call.
    With Situation Rooms: They are already in the room.Organizations that do not share a login work in the same room.
  • Without Situation Rooms:
    Every shift starts from memory.The call cannot be replayed, so the plan is rebuilt.
    With Situation Rooms: The next shift starts from the record.What was said and marked stays with the operation.

How it works

Open, invite, work

  1. Open the room

    Whoever takes the operation opens it, and an email goes out when the room becomes occupied.

  2. Invite the team

    Guests join on a link, with no new account to create.

  3. Work together

    Organizations that do not share a login Talk, mark the map, and share a camera while the operation runs.

FAQ

Situation Rooms,
answered

The questions teams ask before their first room.

Does the room replace our radio?

No. Voice in the room runs next to the radio, so the channel it already runs on stays free for the traffic it is meant to carry.

What does a room run on?

On the same feed Stream carries, so the room is usable for decisions and not only for watching. Drones and docks from different manufacturers report into the same room, so the fleet already in service stays.

Do we need a dock or a special workstation?

No. A room needs no dock and no special workstation to start.

Where can I review hosting and integrations?
