Help 113 GPS
There are around 400,000 holiday homes in Norway. A survey conducted by MMI for the Norwegian Air Ambulance shows that as much as 62 percent of the respondents find it difficult to give directions to the cabin. Very few people have an address registered to their holiday home.
It’s easy to just push a button and give the coordinates to the emergency medical communication center. They will then be able to focus on giving advice and help instead of focusing on localization
