System and method for managing emergency vehicle alert geofence
First Claim
1. A system for managing a geofence for an emergency vehicle (EV), comprising:
- a receiver configured to receive a first location of the EV from a first device at a first time, the first device being associated with the EV;
a processor configured to determine a first geofence based on the first location of the EV; and
a transmitter configured to transmit the determined first geofence to a second device associated with a vehicle, the vehicle being located within the first geofence,wherein the receiver is further configured to receive a second location of the EV from the first device at a second time subsequent to the first time,wherein the processor is further configured to determine a geofence release zone for clearing a previously created geofence based on the second location of the EV, andwherein the transmitter is further configured to transmit the geofence release zone for clearing a previously created geofence to the second device.

Abstract
A system, method and storage medium for providing an emergency vehicle (EV) alert includes a server receiving a first location of the EV, the server determining a first geofence based on the first location of the EV, the server transmitting the first geofence to a second device, the second device receiving the first geofence, the second device performing at least one alert action in response to determining that the another vehicle is located within the first geofence, the server receiving a second location of the EV at a second time, the server determining a geofence release zone based on the second location of the EV, the server transmitting the geofence release zone to the second device, the second device receiving the geofence release zone, and the second device stopping performing the at least one alert action in response to determining that the another vehicle is within the geofence release zone.

11. A method for managing a geofence for an emergency vehicle (EV), comprising:
-
receiving, using a receiver of a management server, a first location of the EV from a first device at a first time, the first device being associated with the EV; determining, using a processor of the management server, a first geofence based on the first location of the EV; transmitting, using a transmitter of the management server, the determined first geofence to a second device associated with a vehicle, the vehicle being located within the first geofence; receiving, using the receiver of the management server, a second location of the EV at a second time subsequent to the first time; determining, using the processor of the management server, a geofence release zone for clearing a previously created geofence based on the second location of the EV; and transmitting, using the transmitter of the management server, the geofence release zone for clearing a previously created geofence to the second device. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)

20. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having computer readable program instructions,
the computer readable program instructions read and executed by at least first and second processors for performing a method for managing a geofence for an emergency vehicle (EV), the method comprising: -
receiving, using a receiver of a management server, a first location of the EV from a first device at a first time, the first device being associated with the EV; determining, using the first processor of the management server, a first geofence based on the first location of the EV; transmitting, using a transmitter of the management server, the determined first geofence to a second device associated with a second vehicle, the second vehicle being located within the first geofence; receiving, using the receiver of the the management server, a second location of the EV at a second time subsequent to the first time; determining, using the first processor of the management server, a geofence release zone for clearing a previously created geofence based on the second location of the EV; and transmitting, using the transmitter of the management server, the geofence release zone for clearing a previously created geofence to the second device. - View Dependent Claims (21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26)
