Computer-aided management of emergency operations (CAMEO):
- This suite of three computer programs is free and available to all responders.
- All hazmat teams in Cuyahoga County have CAMEO loaded on their computers in their vehicles.
- One of the programs, ALOHA (Areal Location of Hazardous Atmospheres), models plume migration. This program can help an IC predict the direction of travel of a plume, its time of arrival at a given point, and how many people will be affected.
- ICs can use this program for evacuation decision making.
