Emergency Communications
& Mass Notification
Effective warning requires the coordinated use of multiple channels of communication.
A single warning is frequently insufficient to move people to action, especially if it cannot be confirmed by direct observation. For most people, the first warning received captures their attention and triggers a search for corroboration. A single mode alert cannot be relied on to elicit the desired behavior.
Interoperability is required for an emergency notification system to increase reliability. Each technology has weaknesses and vulnerabilities, so a mixture of delivery systems reduces the risk of a common-mode failure.
