Genasys Inc. announced a new Genasys EVAC (EVAC) contract with Santa Barbara County. Santa Barbara joins 36 other California counties in deploying EVAC, a revolutionary, zone-based crisis response and alerting solution, to enhance the safety of residents and visitors during critical events. EVAC is the only platform that provides a unique set of data-driven decision support tools that help emergency responders determine the proper scope of an evacuation before issuing an evacuation order, replacing guesswork with intelligence.

Purpose built for all hazards, EVAC provides a comprehensive set of evacuation management tools that make it quick and easy for fire service, law enforcement, and OES/OEM to build and maintain evacuation plans, train using accurate evacuation simulations and scenarios, and conduct life-safety evacuations that reduce incident recognition to community notification time from hours to minutes.
