First responder readiness system

A first responder readiness data server for continuously monitoring at least one readiness parameter of a monitorable device, the at least one readiness parameter being associated with a ready state of the monitorable device for emergency response purposes at least before a commencement of an emergency, the at least one readiness parameter being obtainable from a plurality of sensors couplable to the monitorable device, the plurality of sensors each configured to detect a present value of the at least one readiness parameter of a corresponding monitorable device, the server comprising:

• a communication interface configured to continuously receive data transmitted from the plurality sensors, the data corresponding to the present value of the at least one readiness parameter for each of the plurality of monitorable devices;
• and
• processing circuitry including a memory and a processor, the memory in communication with the processor, the memory having instructions that, when executed by the processor, configure the processor to:
• continuously determine that the present value of the at least one readiness parameter of at least one of the plurality of monitorable devices has changed as compared to a previously detected value;
• continuously determine that the changed present value of the at least one readiness parameter meets at least one user-defined rule based at least in part on a sensor information table and a sensor rules table, the sensor information table including at least one sensor identifier corresponding to the at least one readiness parameter, the present value of the at least one readiness parameter corresponding to the at least one sensor identifier, and at least one rule state identifier corresponding to the at least one sensor identifier, the sensor rules table including the at least one rule state identifier corresponding to the at least one user-defined rule and the at least one sensor identifier corresponding to the at least one rule state identifier;
• and
• generate an alert, the alert continuously indicating at least one of the at least one user-defined rule has been met by the changed present value of the at least one readiness parameter, the changed present value of the at least one readiness parameter has fallen below a desired level, the at least one of the plurality of monitorable devices corresponding to the changed present value of the at least one readiness parameter is in a ready state for emergency response purposes, the at least one of the plurality of monitorable devices corresponding to the changed present value of the at least one readiness parameter has left the ready state, and the at least one of the plurality of monitorable devices corresponding to the changed present value of the at least one readiness parameter is about to fall out of the ready state.

A method, in a first responder readiness data server, for continuously monitoring at least one readiness parameter of a monitorable device, the at least one readiness parameter being associated with a ready state of the monitorable device for emergency response purposes at least before a commencement of an emergency, the at least one readiness parameter being obtainable from at least one sensor couplable to a monitorable device, the at least one sensor configured to detect a present value of the at least one readiness parameter of the monitorable device, the method comprising:

• continuously receiving data transmitted from the at least one sensor, the data corresponding to the present value of the at least one readiness parameter of the monitorable device;
• continuously determining if the present value of the at least one readiness parameter of the monitorable device meets at least one user-defined rule;
• continuously determining a device status indicating if the present value of the at least one readiness parameter of the monitorable device has met the at least one user-defined rule based at least in part on a sensor information table and a sensor rules table, the sensor information table including at least one sensor identifier corresponding to the at least one readiness parameter, the present value of the at least one readiness parameter corresponding to the at least one sensor identifier, and at least one rule state identifier corresponding to the at least one sensor identifier, the sensor rules table including the at least one rule state identifier corresponding to the at least one user-defined rule and the at least one sensor identifier corresponding to the at least one rule state identifier;
• and
• continuously transmitting an indication of the device status to a monitoring display.
