# First Responder Vocabulary
2+
3+
During incidents that involved first responders, it is critical for incident
4+
commanders to understand the collection of people that are at the incident site,
5+
as well as their skills and training, in order to deploy the right people, to
6+
the right places, at the right time.
7+
8+
This specification is useful for describing First Responders using Verifiable
9+
Credentials in a way that is compatible with NIEMOpen, a community-driven,
10+
common vocabulary that enables efficient information exchange across diverse
11+
public and private organizations. Verifiable credentials being issued using this
12+
technology can be utilized by incident commanders to quickly and accurately
13+
determine the capabilities of their responders as well as vet, in real time, the
14+
veracity of their qualifications.
15+
16+
The latest version of the vocabulary is available at:
