Abstract: Systems and methods for managing an incident event by a public safety and security organization. The methods comprise: performing Near Field Communication (“NFC”) or Radio Frequency Identification (“RFID”) operations by a Land Mobile Radio (“LMR”) and a field computing device to check-in a field personnel member into an incident event; communicating check-in information to a remote computing device from the field computing device via a packet switched LMR infrastructure or a public network; and using the check-in information by the remote computing device to facilitate management of the incident event by the by public safety and security organization.

Abstract: Systems and methods for operating a Land Mobile Radio (“LMR”). The methods comprise: performing Near Field Communication (“NFC”) or Radio Frequency Identification (“RFID”) operations by the LMR and an external device; and sending from the LMR or receiving at the LMR information associated with the NFC or RFID operations via the packet switched LMR infrastructure. The information associated with the NFC or RFID operations includes, but is not limited to, check-in information for an incident event, check-out information for an incident, sensor data, authentication keys, verification keys, access codes, and LMR configuration (e.g. personality) information, LMR software code, and/or LMR firmware.
