Axon Dispatch provides a robust 9-1-1 computer-aided dispatch
system (CAD) built on modern cloud technologies
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., March 24,
2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Axon (Nasdaq: AXON), the global
leader in connected public safety technologies, today announced
that the Fresno Police Department, a Major City Chiefs
Association member, is now live on Axon Dispatch, a
computer-aided dispatch system (CAD) platform built on modern cloud
technologies. Fresno PD benefits from Axon's suite of innovative
technology products, including TASER energy weapons, body-worn
cameras, evidence management, Axon Records and now Dispatch.
Axon Dispatch is a robust CAD system built on modern cloud
technologies designed to enhance 9-1-1 call centers. Fresno PD
receives nearly one million 9-1-1 calls each year to its
Communication Center and requires a modern CAD system capable of
reliably handling its call volume and call diversity while being
user-friendly. Axon Dispatch will provide Fresno PD with the
ability to create and manage calls for service with robust
real-time notifications of critical updates, modern mapping, a
streamlined interface for both dispatchers and patrol officers and
a seamless connection to agency-critical data sources and ongoing
product updates.
"The Fresno Police Department is a forward-thinking law
enforcement agency embracing advancements in technology as we
strive to provide a more professional and effective police response
to our community," says Paco
Balderrama, Fresno PD Chief of Police. "We are proud to have
been a development partner with Axon as they worked intensely to
develop a cutting-edge computer-aided dispatch system (CAD) from
the ground up. We look forward to a continued productive
relationship with Axon in developing the best technology geared
toward the protection and safety of our Fresno community."
"This breakthrough technology is a game changer for 9-1-1 call
centers and how officers respond to calls for assistance," says
Rick Smith, Axon CEO and founder.
"We are excited to partner with Fresno PD as they lead the way with
modern CAD technology."
Axon will continue to incorporate real-world signals into
Dispatch to deliver unprecedented real-time situational awareness
and unified communications capabilities to agencies. This will
drive faster responses, safer officers and communities and optimal
deployment of limited resources.
Axon Dispatch is part of Axon's real-time communications
platform, which includes body camera location and live streaming,
and event alerts. We are putting capabilities into the hands of
dispatchers and officers that have never existed, thanks to the
robustness of the cloud.
