Abstract
Natural disasters have brought about irreparable damage to humans, human activity, society, and the economy, and their effects will probably be increased in the future due to climate change. However, the extent of a natural disaster could be diminished if both individuals and authorities are informed of an impending emergency situation. Therefore, the research interest has been directed into developing robust Emergency Information Systems. This paper demonstrates the way a specific Emergency Information System could be designed to deliver alert messages. The system was designed on the base of the DRM standards and was put into action in the region of Vigla, an area located in Symi, one of the Dodecanese islands. The coverage test proved that the system operates well in remote areas that are characterized by rough geographic terrain.
