Abstract
Methods for ensuring relevant information sharing during public safety incidents include monitoring inputs associated with a public safety incident, determining that an input includes information important or critical to communicate to a responding public safety officer, accessing communications with the officer, determining that the input has not been communicated to the officer, and initiating action to communicate the input to the officer. The input may include audio or video input, or a note composed by a dispatcher or call taker representing information provided by a person reporting the incident or obtained through a database query. Initiating action to communicate the input to the officer may include providing an indication to a dispatcher that the input includes important or critical information not yet communicated to the officer, providing data to the officer's vehicle-mounted communication device, or providing an audible alert or audio message to the officer's hand-held communication device.
