Emergency markers look like a street sign, have three letters and three numbers and have a green background and white text. Emergency markers are spaced at regular intervals within metropolitan Melbourne. Emergency markers enable the exact location of a Triple Zero Victoria (000) caller to be accurately identified. Markers are more than just signs. They are supported by GPS co- ordinates and within EST linked to an internal dataset of directional instructions enabling EST operators to provide directional information to police, fire, ambulance and VICSES advising of obstructions such as locked gates, road closures and quickest access points.
