Incorporació d'estratègies innovadores de la FEMA en la protecció civil de Catalunya

FEMA’s Integrated Public Alert and Warning System (IPAWS): El sistema integrat públic d’alertes i avisos de FEMA és una eina basada en internet que les autoritats Federals, Estatals, territorials, tribals i locals poden fer servir per enviar avisos i alertes públiques crítiques. IPAWS és accessible a través d’un software i uns requeriments de sistemes sense cost en l’enviament de missatge (tot i que sí pot tenir cost l’adaptació dels sistemes per la compatibilitat amb el software). No és obligatori i no substitueix els mecanismes existents d’alerta sinó que complementa els sistemes existents i ofereix noves capacitats.
