MINA: Dr. Jalal Al-Owaisi, president of the Saudi Red Crescent Authority (SRCA), inaugurated the mobile command center that conducts mobile operations and serves as the command and control room for urgent incidents during Hajj.
It provides a comprehensive picture from the field through the cameras it is equipped with. During the inauguration ceremony, Al-Owaisi was briefed about the center, its missions, and the technologies and tools it is equipped with to help with its field operations.
The center can receive reports and transfer them to emergency teams stationed around the scene of an incident.
It is equipped with tools that help assign specific tasks to the incident management team, and provides the stationary command with a live audio and video feed of the incident, facilitating the decision-making process.
The command room contains communication and camera systems along with a meeting room that broadcasts what is happening on the field live, keeping those in charge aware of all developments and emergencies.
The SRCA has provided four Thuraya vehicles that will operate during this Hajj season and will be stationed at the points of operations to facilitate the decision-making process.
