Practice Makes FirstNet: 2019 Winter Institute Workshop and Exercise
The First Responder Network Authority (FirstNet Authority) had the opportunity to join public safety leaders at Texas A&M University Internet 2 Technology Evaluation Center’s (ITEC) Winter Institute Workshop and Exercise. During the two day event, the FirstNet Authority observed an exercise supported by AT&T’s Response Operations Program at Texas A&M University Engineering Extension Service’s (TEEX) Disaster City®. The exercise used FirstNet to demonstrate how the network could enhance operational communications during an earthquake scenario.
