Interoperable Media & Publication Resources

We have found it useful for our own research into interoperability issues, both technical and procedural, to have handy a list of Media and Publications Relevant to Interoperability. Publications on this list comment on communications interoperability from a variety of perspectives, including (but not limited to) dispatchers, administrators, first responders, technologists, policy-makers and various vendors. This information is organized by the perspective of the publication.

Government Interoperablity Efforts

We have also assembled a summary of the Government Efforts For Interoperability at both the federal level, and increasingly important, the state level. As the interoperability efforts in each state ramp up, this becomes even more relevant than ever before for local and regional public safety agencies. Even if you consider yourself uptodate on your state's activities, you may want to take a look at neighboring states and/or states that are further in the process and have already learned a few hard lessons. This area is organized by state.
