DataMark Technologies Validate-Edit-Provision (VEP) software was selected by the Florida 9-1-1 Region 4 to consume, maintain, and distribute NG-9-1-1 geospatial data.
Sole Source No. 25-645 with DataMark Technologies, as a result of the Memorandum of Understanding, is to collaborate on NG9-1-1 related matters and encourage collaboration between PSAPs and GIS authorities in the development and maintenance, and sharing of critical GIS data needed to support NG9-1-1 services across the region and State of Florida.
The technical services agreement provides for coordination and facilitation of workshops with Emergency Management E-9-1-1 staff, Polk County’s four Public Safety Answering Points, and neighboring counties to assess, develop, and correct National Emergency Number Association (NENA) required NG9-1-1 boundary layers, and Polk County E-9-1-1 GIS datasets, for conformance with the NG9-1-1 GIS Data Model.
