This is mostly about software, hardware or protocols, but there are some educational resources as well.\n\n## Dispatch\n\n* A ruby-based dispatch system called [skycad](https://github.com/shakycode/skycad).\n* [TicketsCAD](http://www.ticketscad.org/) appears to be under active development.\n* A really old (2009) web-based dispatch system called [WebEMS](http://webems.sourceforge.net/). \n* [OpenISES](https://sourceforge.net/projects/openises/?source=navbar), another old project. The website claims there is an attempt to revive it, and the latest tarball is dated August, 2016. \n* The [Medic Mobile](https://github.com/medic) project is meant to help coordinate activities in areas where there is only SMS available.\n\n## Dynamic Deployment\n\n* A [research project](https://github.com/4rdhendu/Ambulance-multi-agent-planning) about optimizing ambulance assignment. The paper and code are available.\n* A [simple system](https://github.com/ViditIsOnline/SLOR_Back) for visualizing placement of ambulances.\n* [traccar](https://www.traccar.org/) has open source apps for android and iOS. It could be used to track ambulance personnel.\n\n## Study and Education\n\n* A [simple system](https://github.com/ViditIsOnline/SLOR_Back) for visualizing placement of ambulances.\n* The [Free Open Access to Medical EDucation](http://lifeinthefastlane.com/collections/) project brings together medical educational information. There is also a [Search Engine](http://googlefoam.com) and a [twitter hashtag](https://twitter.com/hashtag/foamed), and [several](https://twitter.com/hashtag/foampara) [other](https://twitter.com/hashtag/foamcc) [EMS-oriented](https://twitter.com/hashtag/foamems) versions of the hashtag as well.\n* Every Paramedic has likely already found [ecgpedia](http://en.ecgpedia.org), but here it is anyway.\n* [EMD Cards](http://www.tablonenblanco.com/Ticket/emd_cards/EMD_Card_Version_0.26.2.pdf) is a freely available emergency medical dispatch guidebook. Obviously you're gonna want to run that one by medical control first.\n* [emsprotocols.org](http://www.emsprotocols.org/) is a website that attempts to keep up with the latest and greatest protocols that are available online.\n* [Vital Sign Simulator](https://sourceforge.net/projects/vitalsignsim/) can be used to \"fake\" a lifepack for simulations with a dummy.\n\n## Data\n\n* This isn't really open source, but it's the future of EMS data - [NEMSIS](http://www.nemsis.org/index.html).\n* [PhysioNet](http://www.physionet.org/) has recorded physiological data for that deep learning ECG simulator you always wanted to write. PhysioNet also has a list of software you can use for various kinds of data. If you need a program to detect apnea waveforms or QRS waves, you might just find it here.\n\nThere are a *lot* of EHR/EMR systems out there. I'm not going to list them, but [here](http://www.ourmed.org/wiki/List_of_open_source_healthcare_software) is a really large list.\n\n## Apps\n\n* [epmobile](https://github.com/mannd/epmobile) is an open source app aimed at electrophysiology.\n\n## Devices\n\n* [Zephyr Open](https://code.google.com/archive/p/zephyropen/) is a Java library for communicating with \"BlueTooth Physiological Sensors\".\n* The Linux Anasthesia Modular Devices Interface ([lamdi](gasnet.med.yale.edu/lamdi/)) sounds interesting, but the site seems to be down.\n\n## GIS\n\n* [Quantum GIS](qgis.org) is a very useful tool for all sorts of geospatial work.\n* [PostGIS](postgis.net) is an add-on module for the most excellent [PostgreSQL](postgresql.org) database server that provides geospatial capabilities for PostgreSQL.\n* [pgRouting](pgrouting.org) is another PostgreSQL add-on that enables all sorts of routing features. Works with [Open Street Maps](openstreetmap.org) data and has some extremely useful features for EMS planning.\n\n## Developer Information\n\n* Mobile apps for first responders should conform to the [Mobile Applications for Public Safety](https://www.dhs.gov/maps) guidelines.\n\n\n## Other\n\n* [OpenMedSpel](https://www.openhub.net/p/openmedspel) is a medical spelling checker. There is a firefox addon, but this open source project appears to be a server of some kind.\n\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fjenkstom%2Fawesomeems","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fjenkstom%2Fawesomeems","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fjenkstom%2Fawesomeems/lists"}
