About ATLS

The US (United States) continues to endure the highest number of school shootings on Earth, and these active threat incidents are still rising. The impact is devastating, ripping apart families, and stretching way beyond the school community, affecting families, friends, responders, and communities for decades to come. 

School Safety is a right, not a privilege. Mass shootings should not be considered our “new normal,” and a single child dying from school gun violence is one child too many. 

“Our mission is your protection.”

GeoComm, long-time providers of Public Safety Location Intelligence® with indoor mapping; and ELi Technology, provider of a world’s-first verified dispatchable location methodology have joined forces to develop: 

ATLS Location Services

Working on any nomadic device, anywhere, anytime, ATLS links a 9-1-1 call or panic button to designated school personnel or external law enforcement, whether onsite or close by, and displays the caller’s verified location on a detailed map of the school.

Operating with a totally unique and innovative location methodology, ATLS uses Wi-Fi BSSID (Basic Service Set Identifier) unique identifiers, to resolve the current inaccuracy issues around using estimated dispatchable location and handset-derived location, to find someone in need. 

ATLS is the ONLY full-service safety platform capable of offering a verified dispatchable location, with precise indoor mapping capabilities, 

The location information provided by ATLS is comparable to the same high accuracy as the Enhanced 9-1-1 landline legacy network, it is the Gold Standard. Until now, there has been nothing like it.

Many schools have multiple floors and classrooms spread across expansive complexes. ATLS providing “verified dispatchable location,” means for the first time, Responders are notified of a caller’s exact floor level, classroom or office number as the call is answered. This also means silent-notification systems are fully supported with immediate and reliable information. 

Empowering school safety personnel and first responders with real-time, actionable location information and detailed school maps, on easy-to-use, intuitive software and a secure, reliable platform will help save the lives of staff and students, mitigating poorer outcomes.

Alyssa’s Law requires public elementary & secondary schools to use "silent panic alarms directly linked to law enforcement.

Section 506 of the Federal Communications Commission Ray Baum Act wants to ensure dispatchable location is provided to 9-1-1, including room number and floor level.
