Smart address identification and secure mailbox

A system of interoperating modules that inter-communicate bi-directionally over a range of frequency bands and sensory modalities, transmit their messages to at least one local communications gateway (“LCG”) multiband station at or near a location, and continue to operate continuously for an extended period (not less than 36 hours) during a catastrophic event where local electricity, telephone and/or cellular service has failed. The system is a more resilient and effective location identification network for a location or community in times of emergency that previously available solutions, the system comprising:

• at least one source of local renewable energy removably connected to a powered device;
• a stored energy module connected to one or more rechargeable energy sources of sufficient capacity and operating characteristics to continuously operate the powered device to support bidirectional data interchange, communications and messaging between a location and an outside receiver for a minimum of 3 days (36 hours) when fully charged without further recharging, even under the most extreme weather, smoke and environmental conditions;
• a set of detectable multi-frequency and multimodal communication input and output modules that may be easily (re)located in a location, for example, at or near the point(s) of entry to a location, for example, where a street meets a driveway, or place associated with a mailbox serving the location;
• and
• a plurality of sensors to measure specific local conditions data and report the measured specific local conditions data to the LCG which will seek an available communications channel and relay the message plus additional relevant information about the location and/occupant to an outside receiver where the signals will be processed by a computer using Al to combine all the data and assess the local event and initiate a course of action in response.
