Station Placement and Coverage

Core principle

MissionChief coverage is determined by operational travel and mission demand, not by aesthetically even circles on a map.

Placement factors

• road network and bridges;
• urban congestion and routing;
• coastlines and waterways;
• hospital and custody destinations;
• alliance operating area;
• mission density;
• specialist response time;
• reserve coverage after dispatch.

Planned tools

• placement audit checklist;
• coverage-gap worksheet;
• urban versus rural templates;
• specialist hub comparison;
• transport destination analysis;
• future map-based calculator requirements.
