More About the New Computer Aided Dispatch System
The Chula Vista Police Department (CVPD) Dispatch was using a 20-year-old Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) system. The ten-year Measure P tax sales measure funded a new PremierOne CAD system. The CAD is a critical component of the 9-1-1 emergency service delivery.

Features of the new $1.4 million CAD system include GPS positioning of patrol personnel ensuring the closest units are dispatched to emergency calls; turn-by-turn navigation showing officers the quickest route to a call; detailed mapping with GPS technologies and real-time remote monitoring; and a modern platform capable of interfacing with portable devices such as tablets and smartphones.
