Method and system for deploying disaster alerts in a mobile vehicle communication system
First Claim
1. A method of deploying disaster alerts to a mobile vehicle, comprising:
- determining disaster area coordinates of a disaster area;
calculating buffer coordinates of a buffer region based on the disaster area coordinates;
describing a vehicle circle based on a radius of at least one location coordinate of the mobile vehicle;
comparing the vehicle circle with the buffer region coordinates;
comparing the vehicle circle with the disaster area coordinates; and
deploying at least one disaster alert based on the comparison of the vehicle circle and buffer region coordinates and disaster area coordinates.

Abstract
One aspect of the invention provides a method of deploying disaster alerts to a mobile vehicle. The method includes determining disaster area coordinates of a disaster area and calculating buffer coordinates of a buffer region based on the disaster area coordinates. The method further describes a vehicle circle based on a radius of at least one location coordinate of the mobile vehicle and compares the vehicle circle with the buffer region coordinates. The disaster area coordinates are compared with the vehicle circle. The method then deploys at least one disaster alert based on the comparison of the vehicle circle and buffer region coordinates and disaster area coordinates.
