Using Route Appropriate Resource

To calculate the nearest appropriate resources:

  1. Right-click on the relevant incident icon on the map.
  1. From the Route Appropriate Resource sub-menu select the option required.

The following options are available.

The Exclusion Zone Selection dialog may appear, depending on whether there are any exclusion zones defined in the system. If there are no exclusion zones defined, the routing calculation will start automatically and the next 2 steps will be omitted.

  1. If the Exclusion Zone Selection Dialog appears, select any zones that should be ignored from the Applied exclusion zones panel on the left and click the Add>> button to move them into the Ignored exclusion zones panel on the right. Any zones remaining in the left panel will affect the routing calculation.
  2. Click Ok. The dialog is closed and the calculation starts.

The routes are coloured according to the response time (for Quickest Route) or the distance (for the Shortest Route). Colours are by default defined as:

More routes and/or different colours are possible if configured by an administrator.
