Communication Assets Survey & Mapping (CASM) Tool

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security's Communication Assets Survey and Mapping (CASM) Tool, offered by the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) Interoperable Communications Technical Assistance Program (ICTAP), is the primary resource, nationwide, for the emergency communications community to inventory and share agency, asset and communications unit information, for the purpose of planning public safety communications operability and interoperability.

• The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) is responsible for protecting the nation's critical infrastructure from physical and cyber threats. This mission requires effective coordination and collaboration among a broad spectrum of government and private sector organizations.
• The Interoperable Communications Technical Assistance Program (ICTAP) provides direct support to state, local and tribal emergency responders and government officials through the development and delivery of training, tools and onsite assistance to advance public safety interoperable communications capabilities.
