The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) recommends that all citizens in the United States have an emergency alert system to receive information in case of an emergency. The alert system should be used both in the home and away from home, or when people are traveling outside the country. Normally, the alert system includes a radio, television, and cell phone component, however, outdoor touch screen kiosks can also be utilized to inform people who are out and about. People who are outside of their homes will receive information on the screen about an emergency and how they need to react. If a person is in a location where he or she cannot access this information, possibly because he or she does not have cell phone service, then there needs to be sufficient signage throughout the area so that people are aware of the alert system.

Therefore, considering to put cameras throughout the area that will help monitor for any suspicious activity may be a great solution. Cameras should not only be utilized in areas where there is a high crime rate, but also in areas that might have a large number of tourists because it will help provide them with a sense of security knowing they are being monitored while on site. Especially footage that is at eye level where people walk around.
Call For Help
