A text to 9-1-1 capability went live for Gulf, Franklin and Calhoun counties served by the Tri-County Regional 9-1-1 system in Florida. The Tri-County Regional System was the first regional next-generation 9-1-1 system in operation in the state of Florida. The newly available service fully integrates text call answering within the Solacom user interface — not as a separate program using a web-based application. This integration provides 9-1-1 call-takers with a single interface to handle all call types, enhancing familiarity and ease of use.
