Groundtruth 911
My commercial company, building NG9-1-1 GIS tools for the people responsible for the geographic data behind 911.
Current state Company and product information
The idea
Groundtruth 911 is my commercial company, building software for the people responsible for the geographic data behind 911.
Why it exists
My experience in public-safety technology informs practical tools for the analysts checking records, the managers reviewing decisions, and the programs relying on their work. The tools support human judgment and keep the reasoning behind a decision visible.
Where it stands
Validation Workbench is the central product-development effort: NG9-1-1 GIS validation in ArcGIS Pro, with traceable findings, human review, and recorded decisions. The company website offers demonstrations and current product information.
Schema Bridge is a free public-beta ArcGIS Pro toolbox for moving GIS data between supported NENA GIS Data Model versions. It handles schema conversion; Validation Workbench addresses validation and review.
The tool advises. The human decides.
Related, with separate purposes
My public-interest investigations, including CALL WAITING, are independent of product promotion. Their findings do not presume that Groundtruth 911’s products are the answer. The Aggregation Point is a distinct, vendor-neutral practitioner community.
