If I set up a TAK-Server for this community to use would folks be interested in using it for testing/evaluation?
It would be deployed with the “channels” feature.
There would be a “public” channel and you tell me if you want to be in the public channel. You would have to be mindful that if you have the public channel turned on and you have your location service turned on, others in that channel will see your location.
Each group/agency etc could have their own channel for their own internal use.
Think of channels just like radio frequencies. If your on that channel you can listen and talk. You can be in multiple channels at the same time in TAK.
The TAK-Server can set who has access to specific channels on a per user basis so basically you just tell me I want a channel for my group/agency, I will make that channel and yes or no I want to be part of the public channel or not. We could even make GACC specific public channels.
When time permits I could push Data Packages to the TAK-Server for download into ATAK for large fires, or once folks get comfortable with it they could do it themselves.
If you post to the public channel everyone has access to that data package for the shift etc.
Let me know whatcha all think.
