Method and system for deploying disaster alerts in a mobile vehicle communication system

A system of deploying disaster alerts to a mobile vehicle, comprising:

• means for determining disaster area coordinates of a disaster area;
• means for calculating buffer coordinates of a buffer region based on the disaster area coordinates;
• means for describing a vehicle circle based on a radius of at least one location coordinate of the mobile vehicle;
• means for comparing the vehicle circle with the buffer region coordinates;
• means for corn paring the vehicle circle with the disaster area coordinates;
• and
• means for deploying at least one disaster alert based on the comparison of the vehicle circle and buffer region coordinates and disaster area coordinates.

A computer readable medium encoded with a program to deploy disaster alerts to a mobile vehicle, comprising:

• computer program code that determines disaster area coordinates of a disaster area;
• computer program code that calculates buffer coordinates of a buffer region based on the disaster area coordinates;
• computer program code that describes a vehicle circle based on a radius of at least one location coordinate of the mobile vehicle;
• computer program code that compares the vehicle circle with the buffer region coordinates;
• computer program code that compares the vehicle circle with the disaster area coordinates;
• and
• computer program code for deploying at least one disaster alert based on the comparison of the vehicle circle and buffer region coordinates and disaster area coordinates.
