The Autonomous Community has integrated the Local Police of Cartagena into the emergency digital network of the Autonomous Community (Radiecarm network), a telecommunications infrastructure that the regional government places at the service of all security and emergency agencies established in the region.

The counselor of the Presidency, Pedro Rivera, explained today in his visit to the Security Park of Cartagena that the Radiecarm network "allows to assure the radiocommunications of the integrated emergency services, both in the management of ordinary emergencies and in extraordinary emergency situations. and catastrophes. "

It is a public network, operated and maintained by the Community and independent of the commercial networks of private telecommunications operators, which is specifically designed to guarantee communications against critical mission situations.

"With it, the Local Police of Cartagena can have access to messaging services in their terminals and use GPS tracking applications to see the route of each agent and consult the exact location of the map," said Rivera.

As an example of the service provided by this network in case of disasters, the Minister of the Presidency said that "it allowed to ensure communication to the emergency services of the Region of Murcia after the earthquakes that occurred in Lorca on May 11, 2011, and thanks to her intervention and assistance services could be coordinated effectively. "

As part of this network, the Local Police of Cartagena will be able to communicate with other security services and emergencies integrated into the network, depending on their own municipality (such as, for example, Fire and Civil Protection of Cartagena) and other administrations, such as the Consortium of Fire Extinction and Rescue of the Autonomous Community, the Forest Fire Defense Unit of the General Directorate of the Environment, the Health Emergency Management 061 of the Murcian Health Service, Spanish Red Cross, and the Local Police and Protection Services Civil of numerous municipalities.

The Radiecarm network provides service to a group of more than 2,000 users from different competent bodies in the field of security and emergencies and has meant for the Autonomous Community, throughout its ten years of operation, an investment of 9 million euros.
