'''''MDS (Mapping Data Service)''''' is a service that returns images or features stored in a GIS that can be used to create a display for a telecommunicator or facilitate spatial analyses. Often used to provide maps for handling out of area calls, the Mapping Data Service can also be used locally to provide a single, uniform map display for all functional elements in a PSAP that require maps. |
