The growing interest in mobile information technology for emergency response (ER) stems from the necessity of operating in the field, often with limited infrastructure. ER operatives must rely on the tools they carry, even though organizations invest in sophisticated stationary technology for operations, such as systems for dispatching ER units. While these systems are crucial for strategic planning and decision-making, the actual effects of emergency response must be realized on-site. This involves gathering the necessary information for informed decisions and implementing those decisions through targeted actions in the field. The challenge of balancing quick responses with strategic goals is not new; it is a fundamental aspect of emergency management. However, current advancements in mobile information technology promise to enhance support for fieldwork, improving this balance. By facilitating better information gathering, communication, and processing among all involved parties, mobile technology can empower ER professionals, ultimately increasing the speed, precision, efficiency, and effectiveness of their operations.
