Nevine LLC developed the Emergency Response Virtual Environment (ERVE). ERVE is an intelligent virtual environment that enables effective capture, sharing and renewal of knowledge about critical facilities and infrastructure.

• The system provides emergency response planners and first-responders with situational awareness as well as training and support.
• The system is integrated with GIS to allow users to manage all the critical facilities in a geographic area as well as monitor emergency events and assess their impact.
• The system guides the emergency responders to critical areas in the facility such as locations of hazardous chemicals, water and gas shut-off valves, fire suppressant equipment, and electrical panels.
• Human-like interactive intelligent agents provide debriefing and guidance to the user as well as instructions on how to perform complex tasks.
• ERVE can be seamlessly integrated with emergency text messaging notification systems.
• ERVE can be integrated with live camera or sensor feeds.
• The ERVE solution provides easily renewable on-demand facility knowledge and can be deployed across PC or portable devices via the Web.
• The system has the potential to dramatically improve how emergency responders and planners prepare for and respond to emergencies at critical facilities.
