Wording for section 2.3.x

EM TC

 

Here is example use case wording for the EDXL message in the
current document.

 

2.3.x  Request for law enforcement evaluation of potential nuclear
terrorism

 

An Isotopic Radiation detector monitoring traffic entering San
Francisco detects potential special nuclear material (SNM).  The detector
transmits the detection to the sensor concentrator which activates a series of
cameras which photograph the suspect vehicle.  The combined detection event is
transmitted via a private network to a manned sensor management system.  The
operator examines the captured images and the occupants are evaluated. The
operator determines the 40% chance of SNM warrants addition investigation of
the vehicle, occupants and its contents.  An EDXL distribution message is
created which includes the original detection information, an embedded image of
suspect vehicle with license plate information, a password protected internet accessible
URL of all the images and a CBRN CAP 1.1 alert message to various law
enforcement and incident management centers.  The National Alerting system
determines subscription to CBRN CAP 1.0 alerts are active and performs a
transformation of the CAP 1.1 alert to CAP 1.0 for legacy systems.  The EDXL
distribution message with five content objects is transmitted by the National
Alerting system to all subscribing agencies.
