Sua sponte establishment of large-scale person-to-person emergency electronic messaging communications based in part on subscriber telephone numbers

摘要

Lessons of the Sep. 11, 2001 terrorist attack (9/11), the Aug. 29, 2005 Hurricane Katrina, the Mar. 11, 2011 tsunami off the coast of Tohoku Japan and ensuing Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant malfunction, and the Oct. 29, 2012 Hurricane Sandy are incorporated. Methods are disclosed for rapidly establishing alternate electronic messaging for person-to-person communications in a large-scale emergency. Details for constructing electronic access addresses comprised in part by subscriber telephone numbers and an event identifier, allows the provider to establish a default system with no specific information from the user while allowing the user to access the messages in a systematic way. No registration or passwords are required, which allows free access to all interested parties. Methods are disclosed to reunite lost pets with owners and employ cloud computing and data storage services to provide the equipment on an as needed basis.
