Answer 1

Answer:

Common Terminology

Integrated Communications

Explanation:

Common Terminology:  

NIMS establishes common terminology because this puts to work together different organizations in a wide variety of emergency functions and mortal scenarios without any problem caused by miscommunication.

Here are some common terminology covers:

Organizational Functions: Major functions and units are defined with really simple terms.

Resource Descriptions: Resources (personnel, equipment, teams, and facilities) have really common names that are based on their type and what they can do.

Incident Facilities: Buildings and streets in an incident area are designated using simplified terms.

Integrated communications:

Integrated communications allow units from different workplaces to stay connected, to share vital information and achieve situational awareness.

Incident managers make it easier to communicate through the development and use of:

A common communications plan

Interoperable communications processes and systems

Systems that include both voice and data links
