Providing status of a user device during an adverse condition
First Claim
1. A method for execution by a processing module of a first user device of a plurality of user devices, the method comprises:
- establishing, by the first user device, information regarding a potentially adverse condition associated with the first user device, wherein the information includes one or more of;
geographic location coordinates of the potentially adverse condition, an identifier of the potentially adverse condition, and a relevant time period of the potentially adverse condition;
determining, by the first user device, group constraints for a group regarding the potentially adverse condition, wherein the group constraints include one or more of;
family member devices, neighbor devices, friend devices, first responders, co-workers, and devices of other persons having an affiliating commonality;
selecting, by the first user device, one or more other user devices of the plurality of user devices to produce selected user devices, wherein each of the selected user devices has an affiliation with the group in accordance with at least some of the group constraints;
determining, by the first user device, for the first user device, a status associated with the first user device; and
issuing, by the first user device, a status response message to at least some of the selected user devices, wherein the status response message includes the status associated with the first user device.

Abstract
A method begins by a first user device of a plurality of user devices establishing information regarding a potentially adverse condition associated with the first user device and determining group constraints for a group regarding the potentially adverse condition. The method continues with the first user device selecting one or more other user devices of the plurality of user devices affiliated with the group to produce selected user devices. The method continues with the first user device determining a status associated with the first user device and issuing a status response message to at least some of the user devices of the plurality of user devices affiliated with the group, where the status response message includes the status associated with the first user device.

11. A computing device comprises:
-
an interface; a memory; and a processing module operably coupled to the interface and the memory, wherein the processing module functions to; establish information regarding a potentially adverse condition associated with a first user device of a plurality of user devices, wherein the information includes one or more of;
geographic location coordinates of the potentially adverse condition, an identifier of the potentially adverse condition, and a relevant time period of the potentially adverse condition;determine group constraints for a group regarding the potentially adverse condition, wherein the group constraints include one or more of;
family member devices, neighbor devices, friend devices, first responders, co-workers, and devices of other persons having an affiliating commonality;select one or more other user devices of the plurality of user devices to produce selected user devices, wherein each of the selected user devices has an affiliation with the group in accordance with at least some of the group constraints; determine for the first user device, a status associated with the first user device; and issue a status response message to at least some of the selected user devices, wherein the status response message includes the status associated with the first user device. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
