Santa Barbara County Selects Genasys for Emergency Response Planning and Evacuation Management
July 10 2024 - 8:00AM
Genasys Inc. (NASDAQ: GNSS), the global leader in Protective
Communications, today announced a new Genasys EVAC (EVAC)
contract with Santa Barbara County. Santa Barbara joins 36 other
California counties in deploying EVAC, a revolutionary, zone-based
crisis response and alerting solution, to enhance the safety of
residents and visitors during critical events.
“EVAC has quickly become the crisis planning, evacuation
modeling, and situational awareness solution of choice for first
responders and emergency managers,” said Richard Danforth, CEO of
Genasys. “EVAC accelerates decision making time by identifying
areas for protective action, enhances communication and
collaboration with agencies during cross jurisdictional events,
integrates and displays zone-based maps on county and municipal
websites and apps, and significantly improves community awareness
of evacuation planning efforts with real-time notifications and
updates.”
Mr. Danforth added, “Over the last 20 years, 37 natural
disasters have been declared by Santa Barbara County due to
wildfires, flooding, mudslides and debris flows. We look forward to
working with emergency management officials in implementing EVAC to
enhance public safety for the county’s 440,000 residents and more
than 7 million annual visitors.”
EVAC is the only platform that provides a unique set of
data-driven decision support tools that help emergency responders
determine the proper scope of an evacuation before issuing an
evacuation order, replacing guesswork with intelligence.
Purpose built for all hazards, EVAC provides a comprehensive set
of evacuation management tools that make it quick and easy for fire
service, law enforcement, and OES/OEM to build and maintain
evacuation plans, train using accurate evacuation simulations and
scenarios, and conduct life-safety evacuations that reduce incident
recognition to community notification time from hours to
minutes.
