Rural Response

App currently under development-Beta Testing. This app is not currently active. Rural Response is an emergency alert app that is specifically designed for those that live in low-population density areas. It allows users in an emergency to alert other users in close proximity who can then offer assistance.In some remote locations, emergency services can take 30, 60, 90 minutes to arrive and in some cases, much longer. Rural Response was designed to allow emergency alerts to be broadcast out to other users who are much closer in proximity than those services. Utilize your neighbors and family to create a micro-emergency system for those closest to you. You can change the radius of your alerts, respond or decline alerts, and ask for additional help after you arrive. Even when you’re away from home, Rural Response will find the closest users and alert them of any emergency situations to make sure you get the fastest help possible. Other features include an Informational Alert portion where non-emergency alerts can be sent to those in close proximity to you. Share information like wild animal sightings, inclement weather, or local happenings. Add pictures and notes to all informational events and track their progress from the app. Here is the policy link: https://sites.google.com/view/ruralresponse
