1. A system, comprising:
- an emergency notification device being disposed at a location, the emergency notification device having a sensor for sensing an environmental parameter at the location, the emergency notification device being programmed with a predefined sensor-data profile indicative of a dangerous condition, the emergency notification device being configured to wirelessly output an emergency notification in the event that sensor data sensed by the sensor at the location corresponds to the predefined sensor-data profile that is indicative of a dangerous condition;
a handheld computing device for obtaining the emergency notification wirelessly outputted by the emergency notification device, the handheld computing device being configured to output a visual representation of the emergency notification, the handheld computing device being configured to enable user feedback related to the emergency notification; and
a host facility being communicatively coupled via a back channel to the emergency notification device or the handheld computing device for obtaining information related to the user feedback or information related to the sensor data sensed by the sensor at the location.

Abstract
A method for disseminating emergency notification content from an emergency originating source. The method comprising: delivering the emergency notification content from the emergency originating source to at least one transmitting party; selecting a subset of users from among a set of users for dissemination of the emergency notification content based on the subject matter of the emergency notification content; and delivering the emergency notification content from the at least one transmitting party to a device corresponding to each user from the selected subset of users.

11. A method, comprising:
-
obtaining, by an emergency notification device, sensor data related to an environmental parameter at a location, the emergency notification device being disposed at the location, wherein the sensor data is sensed by a sensor at the location; comparing, by the emergency notification device, the sensor data sensed by the sensor at the location to a predefined sensor-data profile that is indicative of a dangerous condition; determining, by the emergency notification device, that the sensor data sensed by the sensor at the location corresponds to the predefined sensor-data profile that is indicative of the dangerous condition; wirelessly outputting, by the emergency notification device, an emergency notification indicative of the dangerous condition, the emergency notification being received by a handheld computing device, the handheld computing device being configured to output a visual representation of the emergency notification, the handheld computing device being configured to enable user feedback related to the emergency notification, wherein emergency information that is related to the emergency notification is received at a host facility that is communicatively coupled via a back channel to the emergency notification device or the handheld computing device, wherein the emergency information includes information related to the user feedback or information related to the sensor data sensed by the sensor at the location. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
