Delaware 911 system adds live video streaming, photo sharing capabilities

Dispatcher Tricia Mazzola working at the Dover Police Dept 911 center.  One of the first in the state with upgraded text to 911 capabilities.  8 computer screens are seen in front of a brown haired and white woman.

Delaware is upgrading its Enhanced 911 system to include features that will allow callers to stream live video, send photos and use real-time text translation during emergencies. These enhancements are designed to improve communication between callers and first responders, enabling faster and more effective emergency response.

With the upgraded system, 911 callers will be able to share images directly from their phones, stream live video and communicate through real-time translated text. The system includes TTY capabilities and is fully compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act.

Authorities say these capabilities will help dispatchers better assess emergencies such as vehicle crashes, medical incidents and fire scenes.
