“I just want to enter an address and have the computer find my pre-plans…”
For years, that is what firefighters have been telling us they want. Sounds simple enough, but First Look Pro is the only software application that does it right! This unique pre-planning software is designed specifically for use on mobile computers, with extra large buttons for ease-of-use on touch screens. It’s even easier and faster to find your preplans in the newest version of First Look Pro - just enter any part of the building name or address and instantly preview all the related building information, site diagrams, photos, maps, and other documents.
New Version 4 – Now has all the buzzwords! We spent the last year completely re-writing First Look Pro with the latest technology - .NET, SQL, Vista compatibility. Anyone can spout buzzwords, but what does that mean to you? It means First Look Pro is incredibly fast, reliable, and able to handle larger databases than ever before! There are convenient new ways to automatically synchronize your preplans between all the computers on your network so you know everyone has the latest information! You can now attach all types of files to your preplans, including Acrobat .pdf and Word .doc files! There are incredible new Search options so you can find exactly the records you want in even less time! The list goes on and on…
Now,
Fire and Police personnel can
share the same preplans! First responders from
both agencies can now benefit from the same critical
pre-incident plans. Police users can view information
about the structure, access, utility shut-offs,
hazards, and contacts. Every record can also include
diagrams, photographs, tactical plans and other
documents.

"It's all about saving lives and First Look Pro helps us do it. First Look Pro allows us to quickly access our pre-incident plans that show the critical information we need
to safely do our jobs."

Look Pro now has mobile mapping!
Even before you can take advantage of your preplans,
you have to find the building! Now First Look Pro
has an optional Mobile Mapping program which lets
you see just how to get there. With First Look Pro
Map, you can display a map of your district on the
mobile computers in your apparatus which shows the
exact location of the incident. A GPS receiver is
included to show the location of the vehicle and
its progress towards the incident. You see exactly
where you are and where you need to go! A separate map designer program lets you prepare your ESRI map layers so they look exactly the way you want them to look.
