A computerized method and related system (10) for associating particular transportation events with increased risks of weapons of mass destruction threats or accidents to carriers of hazardous materials and identifying matches between emergency response units (ERU) and stationary response units (SRU) includes identifying a group of emergency response units, wherein each emergency and stationary response unit has particular physical attributes. A beacon (20, 36) is installed on each emergency response unit in the group and emits a unique identifiable signal. A database (DB) is maintained for identifying each stationary and emergency response unit, their corresponding physical attributes; and a location based on the unique identifiable signal. The database can then be accessed via a call center (12) to determine area response capabilities for a particular type of calamity needing physical attributes provided by the group of emergency response units. The database may also monitor critical assets (CA) such as hazardous material to ensure that they are not diverted, and if so what response units need to respond.
