The National Alliance for Public Safety GIS (NAPSG) Foundation released the first version of the Resource Management Dashboard Guidance.

The purpose of this Guidance is to provide a consistent framework and functional specifications for developing and using location-enabled dashboard technology to support resource management.

This Guidance on Resource Management (RM) Dashboards was designed to support all public safety disciplines and all types & scales of incidents. Example RM Dashboards are provided for several disciplines in order to illustrate how the consistent framework can be applied to different missions.

It also includes a Technical Tutorial for GIS Staff to use in getting started in developing and configuring an RM Dashboard using Esri-based GIS software.

The Guidance is available in both an interactive format and print version at https://www.napsgfoundation.org/all-resources/standard-operating-guide-templates/.
