Den hårda Alfrida-stormen 2019 var en ögonöppnare för Åland. Myndigheternas ledningssystem behövde utvecklas. Förändringens vindar blåser nu i landskapet då Alarmcentralens funktioner slås ihop med polisjourens på den nya polisstationen som håller på att byggas.
The basic mission of Erillisverkot is to provide its customers with secure services that are free from disruptions and that increase security in society, benefitting all citizens. We produce the services in a manner that is sustainable environmentally, socially and from the point of view of governance.
The broadband Virve 2 services will soon upgrade the communications of the authorities and other security operators into the new millennium. The services are currently being tested, and the deployment is about to begin as a collaborative effort – now on a new schedule that supports customer migration.
The new broadband Virve service for public safety operators is being built carefully and in stages. “We have made excellent progress, as a large part of the work has already been done. The situation could be compared to a building that already has foundations, walls and a roof – at this stage it already looks like a house,” says Ari Toivonen, Development Manager at Erillisverkot.
The legendary Michèle Mouton, a former rally driver, participated in Rally Finland in Jyväskylä as a member of the FIA safety delegation. She praises Virve, the Finnish authorities’ public safety network, emphasising the importance of radio communications in ensuring the overall safety of rallies.
Effective communication technology saves lives. International security experts contracted long days to test broadband solutions at the Kuopio Plugtests in Finland.
