Review your Spotter Locations Book to become familiar with the locations and your book (a resource during activations). The pictures displaying views from the location are not included in this module but can be found in your book. The Spotter Locations Book is set up by quadrant (NW, SW, SE, NE).
Each page contains information about a spotter location including: Road intersection, GPS coordinates, map, road conditions, and special considerations. The GPS coordinates are provided as a reference for you to use - they may not be the exact location of which you should park. Check your book for details.
Tips for making your Spotter Book more helpful to you:
- Mark your exit routes (and where they lead) clearly on your map
- Include any useful or important safety information you obtain through experience or training (roads which flood, no shoulder, etc.)
- On your maps, mark the direction (and distance if known) of the closest surrounding locations to assist with reports come in. This could help you identify if and when your location may be impacted.
