| Abstract |
Mobile communications networks and devices can be and have been used by authorities to warn and instruct the general public during crises. However, our understanding of how mobile technologies could best be used for emergency announcements (public warnings) is currently limited. To clarify one part of this field of study, we define and describe a simple taxonomy for mobile emergency announcements (MEA) systems. The taxonomy has three categories: preplanned MEA systems, ad-hoc MEA systems and semi ad-hoc MEA systems. Differences in functional, security and other requirements were found between MEA systems belonging to different taxonomy categories, both concerning how each category of MEA systems can meet the common requirements, and concerning which requirements are the most important for each category of MEA systems. The differences between the categories were especially clear for these requirements: the understandability and credibility of the MEAs and the security of a MEA system. |

| Abstract |
National information and situation centers are faced with rising information needs and the question of how to prepare for unexpected situations. One promising development is the access to vastly growing data produced by distributed sensors and a socially networked society. Current emergency information systems are limited in the amount of complex data they can process and interpret in real-time and provide only partially integrated prediction and alarming capabilities. In this paper we present a novel approach to build a new type of automated and scalable information systems that intelligently make use of massive streams of structured and unstructured data and incorporate human feedback for automated incident detection and learning. Big data technologies, uncertainty handling and privacy-by-design are employed to match end-user system requirements. We share first experiences analyzing data from the centennial flood in Germany 2013. |

| Abstract |
Social or new media have over the past years become an integrated part of human communication, both as a means to establish and maintain social relationships, but also as a means of sharing and co-creating information. New media comes with an array of possibilities for individuals as well as organisations, corporations and authorities. Within the field of crisis communication new media possibilities, such as online sharing and social networking, has had an impact on the way crisis information is disseminated and updated. This paper addresses the issues related to using new media as a means of communicating crisis information and broadcasting alerting messages to the general population, and also discusses the role of new media in future pan-European alerting. It focuses on current and on-going research on social media for crisis communication. An extensive systematic literature review was done to identify factors that affect the use of social media for alerting and warning. These factors were mirrored in experiences, collected through interviews, in crisis communication organisations in three European regions (Sweden, Czech Republic and Spain). The factors finally form the basis for suggestions regarding the design of technological tools for both communication and information collection as part of a pan-European alerting system. © 2012 ISCRAM. |

| Abstract |
Crises and disasters are becoming more frequent, long-lasting, complex, and interdependent. This can lead to negative psychosocial consequences in vulnerable population groups, increasing the need to (1) monitor psychosocial indicators and (2) make information on psychosocial topics available to decision-makers, the scientific community, and the public. In this WiPe paper, we present a way to systematically visualize, research, and document different types of psychosocial data in crises and disasters by developing a “Multi-Functional Crisis Information Platform for Psychosocial Situations”, called CIP-PS. The CIP-PS has three components, i.e., an information dashboard (CIP-DAB), a research platform (CIP-REP), and a documentation (CIP-DOC) component which together help visualize, research and document psychosocial topics, such as the psychosocial situation picture in Germany. The platform is a valuable tool for presenting relevant psychosocial information in the context of disaster public health. Its strength lies in an extensive connection between the three components related to healthcare informatics. |
