what3words added,
Do all the UK emergency services have access to @what3words ?
Which is my point. If I were to use it in a 999 situation would it assist the operator or would they not have a clue? An emergency is not the time to be having a debate on the merits of the system. I’d like to know now!
.....well I’m hoping @what3words will provide an answer! Communication is king!
We're currently talking to several police departments in the UK and have plans for a wider rollout. Most of them are aware of the system and know how it works, even if they are not actively promoting it.
