Natural Disaster Preparedness Through Mobile Apps By: Brittany Colvin

Emergency Radio When a natural disaster occurs communication is key. And sometimes the phone, television, or internet may be disrupted. ●

The Emergency Radio app allows you access to a list of radio communications including highway patrol, police, fire and air traffic control towers.

Disaster Alert Disaster alert is a great app to keep up on disasters around the globe. It provides a collections of active hazards, and the app will also provide detailed information about the hazard if you are interested.

Earthquakes The Earthquake app monitors all seismic activity around the globe. It then connects you to the U.S. Geological survey website.

iTsunami This app tracks all tsunami warnings, which notifies you even before the sirens go off.

Disaster Survival Complete Guide This app is a great starting point for planning ahead in case of a disaster. It offers a rundown of what you can expect from evacuations to clearing out grocery store shelves.

Survival Kit This app offers very specific information on how to put together survival kits, it even tells you precise products to purchase for your kits. There are tips for emergency kits for home, car, and on the go.

Pocket First Aid & CPR from the American Heart Association This app shows you how to respond to emergency situations such as choking, bites, seizures, etc. It also includes treatments for a wide range of injuries like cuts or wounds.

In conclusion, phone apps are not solely the only resource humans should rely on. We all need to do our part to prevent hazards. But because we can not stop people from cutting corners and living in dangerous areas these apps can help people prepare for disasters.
