The National Emergency Response
Information System (NERIS) is a
mission-critical platform designed to
equip America’s fire service with the data
and tools needed to respond swiftly and
effectively to emergencies.
NERIS Version 1 delivers timely

incident response.
As NERIS expands nationwide in 2025,
it will provide scalable, adaptable tools
for fire departments, municipalities, and
emergency agencies of all sizes. With a
geospatial foundation, scalable cloud-based
architecture, and flexible data schema to
capture emerging threats, NERIS supports
those on the front lines protecting
American lives and communities.
