Abstract: A system and method are disclosed for delivering an alert from a mobile alerting system using distributed notification delivery. The method uses a mobile alerting system to receive an alert initiation request from an alert operator, where the alert initiation request includes metadata of an alert to be delivered. The method extracts the metadata from the alert initiation request and persistently stores the extracted metadata in a first storage place on the mobile alerting system. The method further makes an alert initiation request with one or more remote communication systems based on the extracted metadata of the alert. The method securely delivers the alert initiation request and extracted metadata to the remote communication system, which stores the metadata transiently in a second place, delivers the alert to multiple alert recipients tracks delivery progress and reports the collected alert responses back to the mobile alerting system.

Abstract: A system and a method are disclosed for predicting potential reach of an alert to a targeted audience, targeted personal delivery devices and targeted non-personal notification delivery devices in an emergency mass notification system. The method includes receiving recipients and alert delivery devices data which define a targeted audience and devices of an emergency alert. The method further comprises evaluating contact and configuration data targeting quality rating, tracking data targeting quality rating and real-time data targeting quality rating based on the received recipients and devices data and a data sources repository. Responsive to the targeting quality ratings and prediction weighting data (e.g., numeric weights and descriptive thresholds), the method generating one or more predictions of the potential reach of the alert based on the targeting quality ratings.
