Emergency alerts through SMS
Added: (Tue May 06 2008)
I believe that today’s mobile users need wireless access to email, phone and other critical content, especially when community safety is involved. When emergencies occur, such as shootings and lockdowns on campus and in buildings, there is an urgent need for the broadcast and delivery of emergency alerts through SMS to community members within minutes, if not seconds. Such emergency notification requires urgent broadcasts of point-to-multipoint messages.
Our Amika Mobility Server (AMS) provides a text message-based alert broadcasting system for campus, city, or geographically distributed areas, sending critical public safety information to communities within seconds or minutes. Alerts are transmitted via SMS (TXT), to any SMS-enabled mobile device. Reach anyone or everyone, regardless of their mobile device preference.
With the Amika Mobility Server delivering critical emergency alerts, mobile users can make timely decisions based on the best information available, ensuring their safety, increasing their productivity, and boosting business performance.
