ABOUT INCENDIUM Incendium is a Danish company specializing in secure live video streaming and networking. Incendium was founded in 2009 in Klitmøller, Denmark. In 2013 the partners realized the need for a simple, user-friendly, secure and visual streaming solution for first responders. The Incendium team combined their ideas with a solid knowledge of software, hardware, networking and streaming technologies and a thorough knowledge of their customers’ needs and practices. The team believed that in order to benefit the most from technological progress, it must be combined with an understanding of practices and excellent customer service. Based on these ideas, the Incendium team came up with an innovative and technologically advanced streaming solution dedicated to first responders. Over the past years, the passionate Incendium team has been developing secure streaming and ingenious tailor-made solutions for emergency agencies that contribute every day to greater situational awareness between first responders in the field and their command centers. This resulted in the highly secure visual communication platform for first responders called IncidentShare. Due to this intelligent solution, Incendium is a fast-growing company that is known not only in Scandinavia but in Western Europe and North America.

One
of
the
challenges
encountered
during
emergency response management is the lack of timely and reliable information, i.e. the information that is required for making high-quality decisions under
pressure.
The
IncidentShare
platform
provides all individuals involved in the incident with common situational awareness through a live video input from the incident.
When first responders and other emergency agency staff get the same view on events in real-time, they achieve a better common situational awareness. This enables them to work more efficiently and deploy resources in the best possible way. In other words, the emergency agency staff gets real-time visual input from a scene of an incident, that allows to observe and orient in the situation and make timely decisions and act. The ultimate result is more saved property and lives.
13
WHY CHOOSE INCIDENTSHARE? IncidentShare improves the communication process for the staff and all units involved at an incident by providing live video from the scene, and it supports an efficient information flow by giving access to the visual perspectives of the incident. At the core of each IncidentShare solution lies the central server(s). To view the incoming video the user just needs a web browser or the IncidentShare app for smartphones. No special software is needed on the workstations and the app can be downloaded from App Store or Google Play. That means that it is extremely easy to roll the solution out in your organization. Transmission of video to the central server can be done in a multitude of ways. It can be as easy and lightweight as just using the transmit function of the IncidentShare app or using the built-in capabilities of your favorite video source (i.e. GoPro camera or DJI drone). For the more demanding scenarios or special video sources or simply to minimize the necessary user interaction at the incident, we have developed a range of hardware units that fit seamlessly into the IncidentShare ecosystem. IncidentShare is a user-friendly, secure and easy-to-maintain tool for observation and recording of real-time events, orientation, and interpretation of a situation. Furthermore it allows involving more people that can contribute and support during an incident from their home/office. The platform has a wide range of useful features that allow observers to see the incident timeline, to archive the most important moments, to view the history of the incident, to download the video feed from the incident and share the video for evidence or educational purposes.
