WebEOC Reference Group meets

The WebEOC reference group met today and discussed the initial roll out of WebEOC, it's use in past and future exercises, further training required and new boards to be developed.

The group agreed to their terms of reference and that it's proper name will be the 'Emergency Management Information System' reference group. This reflects the fact that whilst WebEOC is the core of the system it also provides a national GIS system and in the future will have APIs with a number of other systems in order to populate it with real time data.

The EMIS reference group will meet on a six monthly basis, but will also undertake a range of work, such as developing training material or reviewing new boards by email and teleconference.
