Problem to solve in alerting/warning systems
ANSWER: CAP for all-hazards all-media and multi-agency alerting and situational awareness
Managed by the Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards (OASIS)
Recommended (X.1303) by the International Telecommunications Union Standardization Sector (ITU-T) – to align with ASN1 (Abstract Syntax Notation One) ISO standards notation
Complies with the US National Science and Technology Council (NSTC) six principles of alerting, designed for :
• Coordination (avoid duplication)• Consistency (believable)• Channels (Multiple)• Completeness (unabiguity)• Coverage (Geo-targetting)• Control (security)

Automated Standard Message
“A <event> alert has been issued for <areaDesc> by <senderName>. Persons in this area are encouraged to <responseType>, and <instruction>. This event is rated as <severity>, and is <certainty>. Responsive action should be taken <urgency> . For more information about this event, visit <URI> or call <contact>.”
Example of Automated Standard Message
“A Flood alert has been issued for North Western Province by Department of Irrigation and Water Resources. Persons in this area are encouraged to prepare, and stay away from demarcated flood zones. This event is rated as moderate, and is likely. Responsive action should be taken in future. For more information about this event, visit http://www.ndmc.gov.lk/ or call 2395521.”
Exercise – SAMBRO message delivery
1) getting a feel for alerts in CAP format for the project focused coastal hazards (use the SimCAPTool)
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Form four groups and use the same example used in the discussion to now generate your alert message
- Access: http://cap.ituprojects.org
- Login with [email protected] and 123
2) disseminate alerts in CAP format to the Restricted through multiple delivery modes for the chosen event
