The work of law enforcement organizations and first responders in responding to everyday incidents is already challenging enough. Add in a precarious situation like a CBRNE (Chemical. Biological, Radiological, Nuclear and Explosives) incident and the job becomes that much tougher. A CBRNE incident challenges law enforcement organizations and first responders to improve on the level of internal preparedness to better respond and prevent such CBRNE threats and to be able to communicate and share information in real-time across agencies and departments. Interoperability in an emergency situation is paramount to responding and handling a situation properly; law enforcement organizations and first responders need to effectively share information with others in a timely fashion.
AMITA has a focus on enhancing the ability for law enforcement agencies/first responders to prepare, prevent and respond to CBRNE threats. Areas of expertise include interoperability of response agencies, CBRNE incident databases, mass casualty management, and CBRNE crime scene management methodology.
