Using what3words to Help Emergency Services |
||
|
Resident Emergency services often rely on accurate location information to reach people as quickly as possible. However, many places across Derbyshire—such as rural footpaths, parks, fields, multi‑storey car parks and large buildings—don’t have clear addresses or identifiable landmarks. what3words provides a simple and reliable way to share your exact location. The system divides the world into 3‑metre squares, each with a unique combination of three words. This allows you to give an exact, pinpoint position when reporting an incident. Why this is important Additional details to include If you are in a multi‑storey car park, please provide the level you are on. If you are inside a building, please state the floor or area you are located in. This ensures crews reach the correct place without unnecessary delay.
