1. An emergency vehicle route management method executed by a processor having a memory storing instructions for the execution, the method comprising:
- analyzing, via the processor, a map to plot roads, a user including user data, and an emergency vehicle including emergency vehicle data on the map;
determining, via the processor, an intersection of the roads within a predetermined radius of the emergency vehicle; and
delivering, via the processor, an action for the user based on a road on a path of the emergency vehicle being determined by the determining to intersect with a road of the user,wherein the delivering delivers the action to the user when a geofence of a user device overlaps with a geofence of the emergency vehicle,wherein the delivering ignores sending the action for the user if a forward traveling side of the geofence of the user overlaps with a portion of the geofence of the emergency vehicle behind the emergency vehicle, andwherein the delivering delivers a second action to a traffic grid system on the road in the path of the emergency vehicle such that the traffic grid system changes a flow of traffic to prevent obstruction of the path of the emergency vehicle, the traffic grid system being configured to receive the second action when a portion of the geofence of the emergency vehicle in front of the emergency vehicle is within a predetermined distance of an element of the traffic grid system.

11. An emergency vehicle route management method executed by a processor having a memory storing instructions for the execution, the method comprising:
-
delivering, via the processor, emergency vehicle data of an emergency vehicle to a user device; analyzing, via the processor, a map to plot roads and a user including user data on the map; determining an intersection of a road on a path of the user with a path of the emergency vehicle; and determining, via the processor, an action for the user to avoid interfering with the path of the emergency vehicle, wherein the delivering delivers the action to the user device when a geofence of the user device overlaps with a geofence of the emergency vehicle, wherein the delivering ignores sending the action for the user device if a forward traveling side of the geofence of the user device overlaps with a portion of the geofence of the emergency vehicle behind the emergency vehicle, and wherein the delivering delivers a second action to a traffic grid system on the road in the path of the emergency vehicle such that the traffic grid system changes a flow of traffic to prevent obstruction of the path of the emergency vehicle, the traffic grid system being configured to receive the second action when a portion of the geofence of the emergency vehicle in front of the emergency vehicle is within a predetermined distance of an element of the traffic grid system.

13. An emergency vehicle route management system, said system comprising:
-
a processor; and a memory, the memory storing instructions to cause the processor to perform; analyzing a map to plot roads, a user including user data, and an emergency vehicle including emergency vehicle data on the map; determining an intersection of the roads within a predetermined radius of the emergency vehicle; and delivering an action for the user based on a road on a path of the emergency vehicle being determined by the determining to intersect with a road of the user, wherein the delivering delivers the action to the user when a geofence of a user device overlaps with a geofence of the emergency vehicle, wherein the delivering ignores sending the action for the user if a forward traveling side of the geofence of the user device overlaps with a portion of the geofence of the emergency vehicle behind the emergency vehicle, wherein the delivering delivers a second action to a traffic grid system on the road in the path of the emergency vehicle such that the traffic grid system changes a flow of traffic to prevent obstruction of the path of the emergency vehicle, the traffic grid system being configured to receive the second action when a portion of the geofence of the emergency vehicle in front of the emergency vehicle is within a predetermined distance of an element of the traffic grid system. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
