The OASIS Emergency Interoperability Member Section plans to organize an “Emergency Standards Round-up” on the exhibit floor of the Emergency Management & Homeland Security Expo (EMEX), held in conjunction with the annual conference of the International Association of Emergency Managers (IAEM). The “Round-up” is designed to highlight companies showcasing applications and tools in support of the Emergency Data Exchange Language (EDXL) suite of standards, and to provided those companies with additional visibility during the event.

Participation is open to all companies that meet the below criteria.



Participation Criteria
