Welcome to the City of Virginia Beach. A lively community with an average of 600k people and 900k calls for service. I welcome everyone to try it out and provide feedback below and things you like and things you want to see improved. Recommended Tile URL: VB ECCS Map Tile. This will enable dispatchers to easily see patrol/responsibility zones for PD, Fire and EMS units.
Virginia Beach ECCS on Sim Dispatcher is a realism-focused Sim-Dispatcher community built around structured dispatching, 911/311 calltaking, and coordinated multi-user operations. As we build this community, I encourage those interested to join the Virginia Beach ECCS specific discord: Virginia Beach Emergency Sim-Dispatcher .
I am pleased to announce the creation of an initial dispatcher guide available for new personnel joining our network. This guide gives a general overview of how the Virginia Beach system is organized, how fire, EMS, police, marine, and aviation resources are modeled, and the operating doctrine dispatchers should follow when working incidents in the VB environment. It also explains our police post/zone model, station-based fire and EMS logic, specialty resource use, and common mistakes to avoid.
We are currently working on the next round of improvements, including expanded incident keyword logic, better recommendation behavior, cleaner reference enclosures, and continued refinement of the offline database that supports the live simulation environment.
