A system for integrating environmental sensors and asynchronous ubication
repeaters forming an n-point spatially random virtual lattice network
(100) includes a ubication repeater (101) for communicating both
positional and environmental information to a two-way radio transceiver
(102) used by police or firefighters. The ubication repeater (101)
initially determines its position upon actuation from the two-way radio
transceiver (102) where environmental information can be transmitted to
the firefighter's two-way radio transceiver (102) or to a central
location (104). The central location (102) can provide a composite
overview of an environmental situation during an emergency.
