System, method and program product for triggering automatic transmission of emergency data during an emergency

A computer system for communicating information during an emergency situation, said computer system comprising:

• first program instructions to input emergency data for a location into an emergency planning and coordination program loaded onto a computer system connected to a communications network;
• second program instructions to store said emergency data inputted to a database coupled to said computer system connected to said communications network;
• third program instructions to access, responsive to a communication received regarding an occurrence of an emergency situation at said location, said emergency data for said location stored on said database coupled to said computer system, said third program instructions including instructions to confirm whether or not said communication received corresponds to a preset piece of emergency data stored in said database;
• fourth program instructions to automatically transmit, responsive to confirming that said communication received corresponds to said preset piece of emergency data stored in said database, pertinent data from said emergency data accessed from said database to another computer system of an emergency service provider for distribution of said pertinent data to one or more respective devices used by respective emergency responders available to respond to said emergency situation at said location, wherein said pertinent data transmitted to said one or more respective devices used by said emergency responders available facilitates handling of said emergency situation at said location;
• a computer readable storage medium, said computer readable storage medium storing each of said first, second, third and fourth program instructions;
• and
• a central processing unit for executing each of said first, second, third and fourth program instructions.

A computer program product for communicating information, said computer program product comprising:

• a computer readable storage medium;
• first program instructions to input emergency data for a location into an emergency planning and coordination program loaded onto a computer system connected to a communications network;
• second program instructions to store said emergency data inputted to a database coupled to said computer system connected to said communications network;
• and
• third program instructions to access, responsive to a communication received regarding an occurrence of an emergency situation at said location, said emergency data for said location stored on said database coupled to said computer system, said third program instructions including instructions to confirm whether or not said communication received corresponds to a preset piece of emergency data stored in said database;
• and
• fourth program instructions to automatically transmit, responsive to confirming that said communication received corresponds to said preset piece of emergency data stored in said database, pertinent data from said emergency data accessed from said database to another computer system of an emergency service provider for distribution of said pertinent data to one or more respective devices used by respective emergency responders available to respond to said emergency situation at said location, wherein said pertinent data transmitted to said one or more respective devices used by said emergency responders available facilitates handling of said emergency situation at said location, and wherein said first, second, third and fourth program instructions are recorded on said computer readable storage medium.

A process for deploying computing infrastructure comprising integrating computer-readable code into a computing system, wherein said code in combination with said computing system is capable of performing a process for communicating information, said process comprising:

• loading an emergency planning and coordination program onto a computer system, said computer system being connected to a communications network;
• storing, in a database couple to said computer system connected to said communications network, emergency data inputted for a location, using said emergency planning and coordination program loaded onto said computer system;
• accessing, responsive to a communication received regarding an occurrence of said emergency situation at said location, said emergency data for said location stored on said database coupled to said computer system in order to confirm whether or not said communication received corresponds to a preset piece of emergency data stored in said database;
• and
• automatically transmitting, responsive to confirming that said communication received corresponds to said preset piece of emergency data stored in said database coupled to said computer system, pertinent data from said emergency data accessed from said database to another computer system coupled to an emergency service provider network and for distribution of said pertinent data to one or more respective devices used by respective emergency responders available to respond to said emergency situation at said location, wherein said pertinent data transmitted to said one or more respective devices used by said emergency responders available facilitates handling of said emergency situation at said location.
