About CityGIS

CityGIS is a GIS software platform from CityGIS BV that provides geographic information system capabilities. It combines calltaking & dispatching, mobile navigation, and electronic dossier management for ambulance care so users can effectively coordinate emergency services. CityGIS supports real-time location tracking and data management, allowing for efficient response to incidents. The platform also includes features tailored for dispatch centers to improve operational efficiency. Key capabilities: Calltaking & Dispatching Mobile Navigation Electronic Dossier Management Real-Time Tracking Incident Reporting Best for: emergency service organizations that need to manage response operations and coordinate effectively during incidents.

CityGIS is a robust, purpose-built solution for public safety and emergency services that brings together GIS mapping, real-time dispatching, mobile navigation, and integrated ambulance/hospital workflows. Its modular architecture and real-time capabilities — like live tracking of units, multi-layer risk-aware maps, and automated dispatch suggestions — make it highly suitable for mission-critical environments where seconds can make the difference between life and death. For national or regional dispatch centers handling ambulance, fire, or police operations, CityGIS offers a comprehensive “single pane of glass” solution that supports both control rooms and mobile responders in the field. Because CityGIS is tailored to the specific needs of emergency services and maintained centrally (with national servers and own cartography), organizations adopting it may benefit from high reliability and consistent updates — but will likely need vendor collaboration for deployment, training, and maintenance. The lack of publicly available pricing or a self-serve marketplace means assessing total cost and extensibility requires direct contact. Also, because it’s primarily used in the Netherlands and Belgium, organizations outside that region may face customization challenges.

Pros & Cons

What users like
  • +Designed specifically for emergency services where accuracy and uptime are crucial
  • +Provides full situational awareness by combining incidents, units, and risk layers into a unified operational picture
