About this app

NFCA Grid was built for the National Fusion Center Association of law enforcement, private security and intelligence community. The NFCA Grid app enhances critical collaboration by allowing mission partners to receive critical alerts, to find each other by location, proximity or specialty; and then to connect and collaborate one-to-one or in groups, share images, location and real-time intelligence in instant messaging conversations or a 1-click conference calls.

MESSAGE
Private 1:1 and group chat. Share images, video and your location. Create or edit the name of group conversations you start. Notifications will alert you to new messages received. View information on all participants in a group chat even if you're not connected. Start an instant teleconference with your chat group with just one tap.

ALERTS
Receive critical alerts instantly from the BRIC and other commanders. Acknowledge received alerts with "Accept" or "Reject" status, or choose "Reply" to alert sender with additional input. Push notifications will let you know when a new alert is received. Read receipts let your coordinator know whether you've seen the alert. A backup email will let you know about an alert when you're away from your phone.

GEO-CAST
Broadcast your location to your command staff or administrators if requested. NFCA Grid will continue transmitting your location at a battery-friendly interval until you tap the button again to turn it off or logout.

Note: Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
