MTEL Connect 2.0

Connection to MTEL Communications Emergency Services Gateway

Provides emergency services personnel with acknowledgement and notification connectivity to the MTEL Emergency Services Gateway. This APP is available only to employees of the Department of Community Safety in Queensland Australia.

In Version 2.0 the APP will use notification technology to supplement existing emergency turnout infrastructure. The user will be able to open the APP from the notification and receive specific information related to the emergency.

Also in Version 2.0 the APP can receive updates from the MTEL Gateway specific to the emergency. Positional information of the user can also be utilized to determine distance the user is from the emergency services station.

Version 2.5 Feb 2018, has introduced redundant servers for communication to the APP. Text in the Update Log is now colour coded depending on message type. The GPS resolution has been reduced to improve battery consumption. Communication to the APP has been improved and now includes log messages when the connection fails.
