“Salt Lake Valley Emergency Communications Center”的意思、由来-开放百科全书

Salt Lake Valley Emergency Communications Center (VECC) is a 9-1-1 police, fire, and medical emergency services dispatch agency located in West Valley City, Utah, United States. Valley Emergency is the primary public-safety access point (PSAP) for the Salt Lake valley.

VECC was formed under Utah law by six Salt Lake area cities and Salt Lake County in 1988. The current charter members are:

VECC currently dispatches for Bluffdale Fire, Cottonwood Heights Police, Draper Police, Murray Fire, Murray Police, South Jordan Fire, South Jordan Police, South Salt Lake Fire, South Salt Lake Police, West Jordan Fire, West Jordan Police, West Valley Fire, West Valley City Police Department and Unified Fire Authority.

VECC dispatches approximately 2,800 calls for service daily, answering approximately 3,500,911 Non-Emergency and police/fire emergency telephone calls annually.

VECC is one of the 8 Tri-Accredited Elite Centers globally in meeting the IAED's (International Academies of Emergency Dispatching) High Compliance Expectations of maintaining calltakers and dispatchers training as well as ability to follow EMD (Emergency Medical Dispatching), EFD (Emergency Fire Dispatching), and EPD (Emergency Police Dispatching) protocol.

In November 2011, Weber County, Utah, Emergency Services District Tina Mathieu (formerly Scarlet) and two others — former Salt Lake Valley Emergency Communications Center (VECC) Executive Director William Harry and Utah Department of Public Safety Dispatch Center Manager Chris Rueckert — submitted a request for information for a multi-node, IP-based 911 call-handling solution.^[1]

The IP-based Intrado VIPER call processing equipment provides quadruple redundancy at VECC and Weber County, as well as a common database for call routing and mapping systems that displays the caller’s location.^[1]

In January 2013, VECC, Weber Area 911 and the Utah Department of Public Safety/Salt Lake Communications Center went live on the new ESInet and the Greater Wasatch Multi-Node Project was officially launched. The Greater Wasatch Multi-Node Project includes the 9-1-1 services for Davis, Weber, Morgan, and Salt Lake.

The Greater Wasatch Multi-Node Project was the first IP-capable 911 call delivery system in Utah.^[1]

On November 26, 2018, Unified Police Authority/Salt Lake County Sheriff moved into VECC and began consolidating services.

VECC utilizes an enhanced 911 (E9-1-1) telephone network which displays the caller telephone number; known as Automated Number Identification (ANI). The E9-1-1 system also provides the caller name and location with a feature known as Automated Location Identification (ALI), which provides location information based on cell tower triangulation. The system also provides automatic call routing, which means citizens are automatically routed to the 911 center with jurisdiction over the cell tower the call is routed through.
