First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for interactive emergency information and identification, which method comprises:
- sending, with a processor, an emergency notification to a plurality of user devices associated with a first defined category of individuals, the emergency notification including information describing an emergency situation;
transmitting, with the processor, a request for feedback associated with the emergency situation to the user devices associated with the first defined category of individuals;
receiving, with the processor, in response to the request, feedback from one or more user devices of the plurality of user devices, the feedback comprising safety statuses of individuals respectively associated with the one or more user devices;
receiving, with the processor, geographical location information from the one or more user devices of the plurality of user devices, the geographical location information representing respective locations of the one or more user devices;
generating, with the processor, a feedback report comprising the received feedback from the one or more user devices of the plurality of user devices, wherein the feedback report associates each received feedback with the individual associated with the user device from which the feedback was received;
generating, with the processor, a graphical map comprising a plurality of icons respectively representing individuals associated with the one or more user devices from which the feedback was received, the plurality of icons respectively positioned on the graphical map based on the received geographical locations of the individuals represented the plurality of icons; and
displaying, on a screen of a display device, the graphical map and at least a portion of the feedback report visually correlated to the plurality of icons.

Abstract
A computer-implemented method for interactive emergency information and identification is disclosed. The method includes receiving, by a processor, a notification concerning an emergency situation, wherein the notification includes a location of the emergency situation, and defining, by the processor, a geo-fence representing a first physical area surrounding the location of the emergency situation. The method further includes receiving, by the processor, location information representing locations of a plurality of user devices, each user device being associated with an individual, and determining, by the processor, which of the user devices are located within the geo-fence based on the location information. Additionally, the method includes transmitting, by the processor, information about the emergency situation to the user devices located within the geo-fence.
