very very interesting....

his model can predict what resources are needed based solely on factors such as the incoming call’s zip code, time of day, police precinct and initial severity level.

Am I the only one who has ever heard a dispatch go out, and immediately knew 1) who the patient was and 2) what their complaint was, based solely on the location and time of day?

Still, I think this is pretty awesome... AI and big data can help make dispatch decisions... the one caution I would say is past EMS calls don't always corollate with future EMS call locations; we used to post EMS units based on historical call locations, and the blob was routinely wrong and left holes in our city's coverage.
