Israel launches the first ever video service of the special services call.


On the last week, I informed you about the interesting fact that it will be possible to call the police through a Facebook account in Israel. This non-standard use of the personal page is explained by the necessity of a high level of security in the country. And in order to prevent the emergency situations, it is necessary to use non-standard methods.

A mobile application has been developed for the Smartphone that allows you to make a video call to emergency rescue service. According to the experts, such a unique service will help operators of rescue services to gather information in real time. This, in turn, will help to reduce the time of arrival of rescuers, find their way around the situation and to prevent its deterioration.

Nowadays even children are using Smartphones, millions of people have them. So why couldn’t we use it for the common good? People in Israel have reached this conclusion.. If the experiment is successful, the Israeli experience will be applied in other countries.

Israel has become the first country, having established a national platform by means of which emergency services operators will be able to view the video in real-time mode, chat using text messages and find the location of the affected people both: indoors and outdoors.
