This then allows for seamless interoperability across all city and county lines. The resource information is housed in the web based SalamanderLIVE system. As of today, there is over 27,000 people, 22,000 pieces of equipment, and 2,000 organizations in our database across the state.

This course will highlight the latest changes with the release of SalamanderLIVE v3. You will also obtain the ability to gain greater situational awareness, generate incident specific reports, and equipment cost reports.

**SalamanderLIVE v2 will be shut down on June 30^th** requiring users to login using Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA). Several updates have been made with the latest version. You will be sent instructions prior to class regarding the login process. SD state users will use the Single Single On (SSO) option.  

 Please bring your laptop to class. If you have a rapidTAG printer/laptop & TrackAPP you are welcome to bring them. You will be given the opportunity to exercise both tools.
