Wilmington, NC (September 26, 2018) – A new partnership between The Salvation Army and US Fleet Tracking is enhancing service delivery for those impacted by Hurricane Florence, including those in the Cape Fear region of North Carolina, through live GPS tracking and vehicle monitoring.
The tracking devices are placed on Salvation Army Emergency Disaster Services vehicles and equipment, including mobile feeding units, personnel sleeping units, generators, and off-road utility vehicles.
The devices not only help get teams to the areas of greatest need safely, they are also used to produce the most up-to-date information on service locations and provide situational awareness for The Salvation Army’s partners in emergency management.
The Salvation Army Emergency Disaster Services will continue to explore how live GPS tracking can expand the level of care and service provided during future disaster response.
