This project gained international recognition by winning the 'most innovative applications development' award at the TETRA World Congress 2001 held in Nice. This project had a high level of interest from the public and a successful launch/demonstration of the project was arranged at Ambleside. A variety of news media were invited. News items appeared on BBC Breakfast, BBC Today, BBC North West Tonight, Granada TV and Border TV news programs. A later presentation and demonstration was also arranged for BBC Tommorrow's World program, and was shown in March 2002. Print media were also interested in the project and articles appeared in Emergency Services Times, Land Mobile Magazine, BAPCO Journal, Wireless Europe, Ambulance UK and newspapers including North West Evening Mail and the Westmorland Gazette. The system was presented and demonstrated at a number of international conferences.
