Abstract : This research paper will review current operational constructs in emergency response specifically focusing on incidents of national significance where multiple organizations must manage crisis, respond, and provide services as an integrated team. These organizations primarily include, but are not limited to, the Department of Homeland Security, the military both active and reserve components, and civil authorities including first responders. With a focus on improving unity of effort, the common operational picture will be explored as a means to support decision making, coordination, and integration between emergency response organizations. With a common framework for collecting and disseminating information, agencies can improve efficiency, make better use of resources, and provide a coordinated and timely response during crisis. The goal is to review the roles, responsibilities, and capabilities of emergency response organizations and identify the requirements, opportunities, and challenges in the design and implementation of a common operational picture.
