How can digital cameras impact school safety?
Digital cameras can be used to film or take pictures of your HVAC systems, and a lot of times, depending on the threat, especially in a biological incident such as an Anthrax incident, there may be a need to turn off your HVAC systems. Not a lot of people in the schools know how to do that, so a school can use their digital cameras by taping, filming or taking a picture of the shut-off valves for the HVAC systems and getting your maintenance to show them how to do that and to write that down and put it next to the picture. I mean, put it with their plans, so that anyone in the school can perform that function if need be. Also, a good way that digital cameras can be used is for mapping, as they can be used to take pictures of parts of the school that may pose a hazard. They can be used for example if there is graffiti on the school. You should take a picture of it and then remove it, so that you have evidence of that graffiti so that you can take it to your local gang awareness group and ask them what type of gangs are in your school. So they can be used in a variety of ways.
