When it comes to fire service professionals, unsafe structures and environments continuously pose a risk to their health, safety, and well-being.
Firefighters are in danger while they work to extinguish each blaze and rescue victims who may be trapped inside. The hazmat team is vulnerable when responding to chemical spills and explosions. The search and rescue team enters precarious situations that no one else has the capability to handle. Investigators put themselves at risk when they are exposed to environmental conditions and the structural damage that remains after the emergency response team has cleared the scene.
See how OSCR360 can help with accessing unsafe structures and training for these scenarios.
While on-site tactical training is certainly an important component of a well-rounded training regimen, these types of trainings tend to be costly, time-consuming, and impractical to achieve on a frequent basis.
OSCR360 is a multi-use tool for fire departments of all sizes that allows firefighters and investigators the unique opportunity for limitless in-house training.

When arson is suspected, the investigator is ultimately responsible for identifying and collecting evidence to support proof of incendiarism, proof of opportunity, proof of motive and connecting the evidence.
