Abstract
The present disclosure provides a description of an automated notification system based upon location apparatus and networks like the Global Positioning System (GPS) or land-based radio signal triangulation. Notifications are broadcasted to various devices based upon the position of the moving broadcasting unit. Signals from the broadcasting unit could be sent at preprogrammed time to corresponding receivers. The broadcasting unit has an onboard computer that is preprogrammed with route information including scheduled stops and wirelessly sends information at preprogrammed time to multiple receivers. The onboard computer receives live update route information from the control center wireless communication module that can override the information previously entered into the computer with a removable media.
