OASIS plans to organize an “Emergency Standards Round-up” on the exhibit floor of the Emergency Management & Homeland Security Expo (EMEX), held in conjunction with the annual conference of the International Association of Emergency Managers (IAEM). This round-up is designed to provide companies showcasing applications and tools in support of the Emergency Data Exchange Language (EDXL) suite of standards more visibility during the event.

Participation is open to all companies that meet the below criteria.

Participation Criteria
Participation is open to all confirmed EMEX exhibitors. Participating companies must have products that support specific versions of the OASIS Emergency Management Standards, including CAP, EDXL-DE, EDXL-HAVE, and EDXL-RM.

Round-up Format

EMEX attendees will be encourage to begin their Round-up experience at the OASIS booth (where the “Round-up Passport” will be distributed). OASIS will work with IAEM to promote the Round-up to all their attendees. Attendees will be directed to stop by each participating company’s booth to receive a passport stamp. Once an attendee reaches all the participating booth space locations – they will qualify to participant in an IPAD give-away. The give-away drawing will take place on either Tuesday, 15 November or Wednesday, 16 November during a special “Round-up Happy Hour,” in honor of our Round-up participating companies.
