Large Texas metropolitan area uses Haystax during crisis events

The Dallas/Fort Worth/Arlington Metroplex covers more than 9,000 square miles and is home to upwards of six million people and thousands of infrastructure assets. For many years, DFWA has been using Haystax’s real-time regional threat and risk assessment capabilities to serve multiple agencies and users — from analysts in the intelligence fusion center to first responders on the ground. Haystax’s mobile apps enable operations typically limited to fixed command centers or tasks routinely performed using pen and paper to be fully digitized. Haystax is one of the pioneers in implementing a risk-based public-safety management system that enabled first responders to more rapidly share and act on information across jurisdictional boundaries. DFWA has achieved much better contextual situational awareness during major tornadoes and other destructive events, where prioritization of information is critical.
