This form is used to Add Locations or Edit Locations. Locations are EMS data used to perform core EMS functions (like Practices). A Location can be a Building or an Area. The fields on the Add / Edit Location Form will change depending on whether “Building” or “Area” is selected. Terms for both versions of the form are defined below.

Note: Locations must be entered into EMSWeb before associated Practices, Aspects, or Equipment/Resources can be added.
