“We know well the benefits of real-time tracking, but the adoption of a fully integrated national approach represents a great leap forward. All the aircraft are equipped with standardised tracking and event reporting equipment, which reports into TracPlus - which then makes it available to our customers who all have unique requirements.”
"The fact that we can monitor exactly where our park rangers are and what they’re doing means we can always respond with the necessary assistance they may need."
“TracPlus has changed the reporting of intelligence completely. It registers the exact location of where we pick up water, and how many litres we’re picking up. It’s tracking us to and from the fire. That way, the command centre can see how effective we are as it determines what our turn around times are.”
