AidLink: Real-Time EMS and Fire Call Tracker
AidLink is an educational and reference application designed for iPhone users that provides a real-time feed of Emergency Medical Services (EMS) and fire calls specifically in South King County, Washington. This app is particularly beneficial for users affiliated with agencies, as it allows them to view the real-time locations and estimated times of arrival (ETAs) for dispatched ambulances. Currently, AidLink tracks only those departments dispatched by Valley Communications Center, with the potential for future expansions to include additional departments and Public Safety Answering Points (PSAPs).
The application serves as a supplementary tool for users to stay informed about local emergency services, although it is important to note that AidLink is not affiliated with any 911 agencies. The app is not intended to replace official 911 services and should not be relied upon in emergency situations. AidLink is available for free, making it accessible for anyone looking to enhance their understanding of local emergency responses.
