Roam Secure Alert Network’s (RSAN) Location-based services (LBS) allows organizations to alert individuals located in the crisis area in real-time by utilizing GPS reporting technology in smartphones. Individuals, who are registered with an LBS provider, can allow RSAN to retrieve and display their latest reported location on maps for authorized users. This information shows which personnel are located within the crisis zone in order for administrators to launch a two-way alert to see if they are safe and send additional help if needed. Before, during and after a disaster, organizations can also locate first responders, key personnel and healthcare professionals closest to the emergency to direct them to assist with the situation.
RSAN LBS is an easy-to-use and effective emergency notification tool. By simply drawing a circle or polygon around the disaster area on a map, organizations can not only see which individuals are located within the threatened area, but also notify them of the situation. Users can also type in the geographic location by address and an automatic shape is drawn around the area.
