Michigan Unifies AVL and Radio Location Statewide for Emergency Response

CompassCom’s real-time AVL and radio location platform delivers secure, GIS-based visibility across Michigan’s 83 counties—enhancing incident coordination, reducing response times, and aligning with state cybersecurity policies.

To meet the complex public safety demands of urban, rural, and off-grid environments, the Michigan Public Safety Commission (MPSC) and Michigan Public Safety Communications System (MPSCS) selected CompassCom to power a statewide situational awareness platform. Leveraging Motorola APX^™ P25, BK Technologies^®, broadband, satellite, and Esri^® GIS, the system provides real-time visibility of field personnel, vehicles, and mobile assets—even during infrastructure outages.

This real-world deployment sets a national benchmark for AVL software for Motorola radios, real-time public safety location intelligence, and secure emergency communications.
