| E-MAPS Road Block Optimization One of the key capabilities of E-MAPS is rapid creation of optimized road blocks. This functionality was developed during the DC Sniper spree to allow law enforcement and emergency management personnel to quickly create and implement optimized road blocks. E-MAPS is the only commercially available product with this functionality. The software performs this optimization by identifying key locations for placement of road closures. As shown in the following graphic.
To close the area on the left, 12 road closures would be required. Through optimization, the number has been reduced to 7. Additionally, the software has ranked (shown in colors ranging from red to white) most likely exit routes from the incident location at the center of the circle. The road closures are also ranked from the most to least important. You can review a video clip of E-MAPS's road closure capability by clicking the following link. (Requires Flash 6 and a high speed Internet connection) Please note: In order to make the clips viewable over the internet, the resolution and number of available colors was restricted.
