This document uses terms from [RFC3261]. 2 Introduction Research on emergency communication is important in the process of digital mine construction, and it is a hot topic recently. Due to Emergency Command and Dispatch Communication System (ECDCS) with mobile communication devices, the original communication system which has been severely damaged can be protected to maintain communications emergently [1]. Because of various management departments, each department can perform emergency preplan respectively [2]. Based on Geographic Information System (GIS), this document is dedicated to design a novel ECDCS for the construction of digital mine. 3 Emergency Command and Dispatch Communication System (ECDCS) ECDCS is a communications system based on the intelligent information network, met the needs of the intelligent management, dealt with urgent crisis and emergency events and integrated language, data and sharing for emergency command and informationized the whole process management. The system is comprised by four elements: resource document management, emergency mechanism composition, command and dispatch process and command communication platform. 3.1 Resources Document Management (RDM) RDM module is mainly aimed at emergency preparations constructing corresponding emergency plan for emergency command system when emergency affairs [3] is preventable, which is regarded as auxiliary line of the emergency command system to establish corresponding process and mechanism, such as standard plan affairs, events grade, response department, relief resources, command department, follow-up manpower, secondary events with relevant experience value, aftermath treatment and so on, providing corresponding decision and rapid response to emergency command. RDM module includes six parts: emergency response plan compilation, emergency case management, emergency plan drill, emergency experts management, emergency supplies management and emergency disaster statistics. Huang, et al. Expires - March 14, 2012 [Page 3] Internet Draft ECDCS Based on Geographic Information March 2012 The emergency response plan is provided for compiling a complete emergency plan conveniently. Emergency plan can be saved as a word document after users fill the information in property dialog boxes, and this record is kept in the database correspondingly through the handy module design. Emergency case management records and manages the accident which has happened in a time unit, including the accident site, grade, casualties, economic loss and so on. Emergency plan drill is to record and manage the historical drill of the emergency response plan and to provide the corresponding practice process. Emergency experts management is to widely collect information of each kind of accidents relief experts, such as names, telephone numbers, expertise for a rescue expert database establishment to offer the fastest and the most professional rescue. Emergency supplies management is to record and manage the existing relief supplies, and a relief supplies database is established for it in order to discover the shortage of supply materials in time and provide material guarantee for accident rescue. Emergency disaster statistics is provided for inquiring about the accidents which have happened with conditions of disaster type, loss situation and years. 3.2 Emergency Mechanism Composition (EMC) EMC module is provided for making overall arrangements for the internal rescue work expediently, and making the corresponding rescue and deploying the appropriate relief supplies to ensure the smooth progress of the rescue. Departments or units at different levels set up command centers according to the type of incident and call resources plan information and configuration information in the preset, where modern technologies are supplied to retrieve and deploy, such as spatial information (digital maps of the accident scene), expert resource database, trade and professional characteristics, event estimation, aid guarantee, rescue manpower, departments and appropriate resources. EMC module is composed by the general scene headquarters, technical rescue organizations, emergency rescue organizations, security guard organizations, rescue evacuation organizations, medical care organizations and material supply organizations. Each part has their respective functions and duties, and this clear division mechanism ensures effective emergency rescue. Huang, et al. Expires - March 14, 2012 [Page 4] Internet Draft ECDCS Based on Geographic Information March 2012 3.3 Command and Dispatch Process (CDP) The responsibility of CDP contains warning after the accident, accident rescue, emergency response agencies and their place of duty, dealing with the aftermath and other related issues in real time with visual management. The goal of intelligent alarming can be reached through multi-angle information collecting which providing scientific decision making proofs for visual command and dispatch as well. CDP module provides tracking function with warning, rescue, rehabilitation and so on. Thus, the CDP module can be composed by emergency case startup, emergency organization establishment and emergency dispatch handling. These three parts complete all functions of CDP, such as special command, group command, special report, command transferring, command authority, command coordination, command call and command advance notice. The process can monitor terminal audio and video of command and dispatch systems, and it can take over any command terminal. 3.4 Command and Communications Platform (CCP) CCP based on the handset message service is one of the most important communication means for completing daily emergency duty and ensuring all emergency response incidents disposal well, and through existing or new mobile command vehicle it achieves the purpose of emergency communications. CCP send text messages according to the specific accident level and types if an emergency occurs in underground mine and the corresponding relief route can be produced according to the specific accident circumstances. Emergency response agencies receive text messages, then they notify the various departments to start relief and rescue work in time. Each department understands the current disaster relief situation, and through the most effective line rescue and relief work can be carried out. Huang, et al.

It is beneficial to reduce the loss and impact caused by unexpected mime events, and through it lives and safety of workers are attained protection. ECDCS present in this document can solve emergencies well, and this document provides a reference system model for command and dispatch communication. 5 Security Considerations Security can not be considerd in the emergency command and dispatch communication software, though it is an integral concern for digital mine construction. 6 IANA Considerations This document does not have any implications for IANA. 7 Acknowledgments The research was supported by National High Technology Research and Development Program of P.
