The scenario begins in a large commercial building
Combining NIST BFRL and OGC
Building Emergency Response Scenario
Following is a use case scenario of a building fire
incident and covers alert generation and propagation to
dispatch followed by the first responder use of building
data. In addition, a table is presented that collects
previous work with public safety representative in
defining useful building data. This table categorizes the
building data.
at 321 Prince Street
in a section of the third floor
that is undergoing renovation. Contractors left out some
vapor-producing chemicals that have ignited after-hours,
producing a small explosion and starting a fire.
The explosion disables the smoke alarm in the room
but this generates a trouble condition at the fire panel.
The fire panel generates a Common Alerting Protocol
CAP alert
that is passed to the BISACS Base Server (BBS)
The alert is then passed to the subscribing central
station alarm (CSA) company
that monitors the building
Upon receipt at the CSA, a representative attempts to
contact the building personnel to verify the alert
(smoke alarm trouble in room 310)
While the CSA representative follows procedures to
verify the alert, another alert arrives
reporting a smoke alarm from the hallway outside 310
The CSA representative then immediately transmits these two alerts
to 9-1-1 dispatch electronically, with both CAP alerts grouped
together in a message. The 9-1-1 dispatch center receives the CAP
alerts with data fields from the message loaded into form fields
Alan Vihn NIST BFRL: “I'm not
clear what you're trying to
distinguished between
"passing" and "transmitting" the
alerts between these systems.
What we are trying to work
towards is some form of
standard access point (SAP)
between the various emergency
computing facilities/networks
such as the BBS, the CSA, the
NG9-1-1 and the PSAP
systems. Having the SAP in
place and most likely it will be
implemented as a web services
interface, we don't really
"transmit" alerts (ala radio
signals) but rather connect to
the various SAPs and send in
the alerts via IP
connections/communications
(either via land lines or mobile
communication).”
At this point the dispatcher will see that there is a suspected fire in a
commercial building at 321 Prince Street with smoke alarm trouble
and alarm signals on the third floor.
Alan Vihn NIST BFRL ….that is why SAP Standard Access Point is important, if one bubble is not there, go to the next one,
back to square one and no body knows about it. Eventually they talk back to the building….
Michelle Raymond Honeywell…there is alert information that can come from any level, it gets aggregated at any level, each
information provider has an identifier, some will have access and will be made available when its appropriate, then would have
access. What can be retrieved may be policy based, and the incident needs an identifier, is a part of the identifier you need…

STATIC - prepared ahead of time, each
building and jurisdiction may be different
1 floorplan from building owners, fire
department goes out to validate
2 for naming conventions for buildings, levels,
spaces etc
OSHA's Interactive Floorplan Demonstration
DYNAMIC - interoperable, systematic
3 information content, would be the
discrete elements relevant to safety and
response
4 spatial temporal is when an incident
starts, elements that change state, real
time updates

Remainder of the slides will be from the Building
Information Model point of view as the scenario
continues on. Final slide will be just the scenario
