RSS Feeds

RSS to reach a wider range of audiences

The ability to embed an RSS feed into different sites allows to distribute alerts more rapidy.  For example,  "on the internet, it is difficult to predict where people will look for confirmation. The integrated RSS feed of the Autonomous Public Emergency Warning System (APECS) means local councils, surf clubs, volunteer service organisations, etc. can always display the latest alerts relevant to their geographic area. This means people looking to their local surf club or council web site for confirmation of a tsunami are more likely to find it, and therefore more likely to be able to take action." (Source)
