    Abstract: A device, system, and method for determining a user's proximity within a predefined radius. A mobile electronic device with location software thereon can record and analyze ambient noise to determine after initiated the user's estimated locations as well as to track the user's movements throughout a predefined radius. The mobile locate software may present information to the user according to the user's position within the radius of the area. The type and nature of the information presented to the user can be changed according to the user's distance from emergency services as well as how quickly the user is approaches the safe zones. The software may provide detailed data about the movement of the user and additional users of the software that are within the determined radius. This information may be correlated with local, state and federal officials in the determination of the initial incident.
