20120092161 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR NOTIFYING PROXIMAL COMMUNITY MEMBERS OF AN EMERGENCY OR EVENT - Aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to systems and methods for an automated community notification system (“CNS”) that is configured to notify certain individuals with relevant information relating to occurrence of an event or emergency at a given geographical location. Generally, aspects of the system include operative connections to one or more security system providers (“SSPs”) to identify events/emergencies at properties. In alternate embodiments, system users provide event information to the CNS via users' electronic devices. According to one aspect, system users register with the CNS and provide user information, preferences, geographic information, etc., and the CNS subsequently utilizes that information (in connection with other third party information sources) to establish “neighborhood networks” for system users. Typically, members of in the same neighborhood network are notified and provided with relevant information when an emergency occurs at the property or geographic location of another user in the members' network. | 04-19-2012 |
