The Multi-intelligence Domain Awareness System (MIDAS) will also be on display. MIDAS is a state-of-the-art, net-centric, data aggregation, situational awareness and decision support system. It fuses knowledge of current operational status with powerful consequence analysis functionality, delivering a real time geospatial framework used to manage critical fusion centre operations. MIDAS is accessed using an intuitive geospatial display and can be deployed rapidly.

Other highlighted capabilities will include: CommandPoint, the computer-aided dispatch call handling application for use by the emergency services; and the Integrated Tactical Rapid Assessment of Chemical Biological Radiological and Nuclear (CBRN) Environments (I-TRACE) system, a man-portable capability for monitoring CBRN incidents and the collection and handling of related data.
