Abstract
Este proyecto plantea un problema en el ámbito de la difusión de alertas de emergencia, concretamente la falta de soluciones completas de entrega final de dichas alertas. Se plantean cuatro desventajas en la forma actual de recibir alertas de emergencia: • Fragmentación de fuentes: un usuario interesado en información de varias fuentes debe acceder a cada una de manera independiente. No existen soluciones completamente integradas de agregación. • Presentación heterogénea: cada organización presenta la información de una alerta de una manera diferente y la experiencia no es homogénea para el usuario. • Falta de personalización: las alertas presentadas por cada organización son estáticas y fijas de tal manera que un usuario no puede filtrar, organizar o visualizar las alertas de la manera más conveniente para él. • Comunicación unidireccional: con el sistema actual el flujo de información es unidireccional, de las organizaciones al usuario. La solución propuesta no elimina esta desventaja aunque provee una base para extender la funcionalidad en este sentido en el futuro. Se analiza el estado del arte de la difusión de alertas de emergencia desde tres dimensiones diferentes: el estándar CAP para el intercambio de alertas de emergencia, aplicaciones existentes para la recepción de alertas y las tecnologías móviles avanzadas. En base al estudio se propone una solución que se basa en la creación de una aplicación móvil sobre una plataforma de última generación: iOS. Se documenta el proceso de creación de un prototipo como prueba de concepto de la solución, incluyendo un estudio previo de la metodología a seguir durante el desarrollo. Se incluyen los tres apartados fundamentales de un proyecto de ingeniería del software: Análisis y Diseño, Implementación y Evaluación. Se presenta además un presupuesto orientativo que puede servir como guía para plantear la viabilidad económica de un producto similar. Al final del proyecto se presenta la solución desarrollada, contrastándola con los objetivos planteados y se detallan posibles extensiones futuras. La contribución final del proyecto está formada tanto por el estudio y análisis realizados como por una aplicación funcional que se incluye en el mercado público a disposición de cualquier usuario. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
This project presents an existing problem in the realm of emergency alert dissemination, specifically the lack of complete solutions for delivery of said alerts. There are four disadvantages with the current method for receiving emergency alerts: • Fragmented sources: a user who is interested in information from various sources must access each one individually. There are no completely integrated aggregation solutions. • Differing presentation: each organization or source delivers the information contained in an alert in a different manner and the experience is not consistent for the user. • Lack of personalization: the alerts that are delivered are generally static and fixed in such a way that a user cannot filter, order or visualize them in the most convenient manner. • One-way communication: with the current method the flow of information is one-way, from organizations to users. The proposed solution does not eliminate this disadvantage although it provides the framework to extend functionality in this direction in the future. A state of the art analysis was performed on emergency alerts dissemination based on three key dimensions: the CAP standard for alert exchange, existing applications and advanced mobile technologies. Based on this study we propose a solution centred on creating a mobile application for a current mobile platform: iOS. The process of creating the prototype as a proof of concept solution is completely documented, including a study of the chosen development methodology. The tree fundamental aspects of any software engineering project are included: Analysis & Design, Implementation and Evaluation. Furthermore, there is a budget proposal, which serves as a guide to the economic viability of the project. At the end of the document the developed solution is presented and measured against the presented objectives, along with possible future upgrades. The contribution of the project is made up of both the analysis and the functional application that is included in the public domain available to any user.
