  • Abstract
    Maintenance of critical emergency infrastructure is potentially lifesaving, but also expensive and tedious to document and track. In this paper we demonstrate a maintenance system based on Near Field Communication (NFC). NFC-enabled mobile phones and NFC tags are used to improve recurring maintenance processes: the maintenance task itself becomes more efficient; and the system facilitates real-time documentation, central process control and proof of presence at the checkpoints.
