The NovaStar system provides features to ingest data from multiple data sources and formats including radio (e.g., ALERT and ALERT2), satellite, cellular, serial, and internet sources, using a design that supports periodic and event-driven data reports. NovaStar systems are implemented using a configuration that meets the requirements of an organization, including redundant collection servers and data publishing using web service API and data viewing applications. A NovaStar system provides applications that are designed for different user roles.
NovaStar allows various alarm triggers to be configured to detect critical conditions, with resulting displays and notifications. NovaStar can be integrated with other systems and components, including GIS, flooded roadway flashers and controls, sirens, mass notification systems, and other systems.
