My argumentation to use ws's is that this central monitoring station will be identical to the monitoring people's own monitoring stations (except for the monitor, which will be a videowall) and that they will have the ability to manipulate the central screen in the same way as their own when a major event happens so that they can all share and work from the same centrally presented info.
