SitRep Issue
Hi Everyone,

    

    As I was working along on the SitRep doc, it dawned on me that we do
    not have any specific "RequestForSitRep" messages and it seems to me
    like that would be a good thing to have unless we expect all
    jurisdictions to have well-known and published policies wrt to the
    frequency for sending reports up the chain of incident command. I
    know we don't have that now. We do have a requirement for it,  

    
      
as a part of the use of the DE which has it as a
        distributionType,

      
as a Request for Information from Table 3 of the Requirements
        pdf (which I would suggest be a request for one of the specific
        report types, and,

      
as a part of Response Resources (particularly when making use
        of RM. 

    
    

    However, we seem to have missed the second bullet above when we
    categorized our requirements.

    

    Note: we also don't use "Dispatch" or any of the sensor types from
    the DE.

    

    Unless I get a groundswell of opinion that we don't need it, I plan
    to add a blank RequestFor.. for each of the report types. I would
    expect that the same elements in the reports themselves would be
    part of a RequestFor...(that report type).

    

    We also don't have a "Recall" as we do in the RM, but I don't see an
    immediate need for it and we also didn't have a requirement for it.
    Again, unless we have a groundswell requiring it, I will leave it
    out.

    

    Cheers,

    Rex
