    Abstract

    The notification system for firemen and rescuers is based on pagers. This technology is reliable and verified but outdated. The reporting system for accidents and interventions (SPIN) is a web application of the Administration of the Republic of Slovenia for Civil Protection and Disaster Relief. It provides an insight into incidents, reported to the number 911. We have decided to develop a prototype of a system, that notifies users about the incidents reported to the SPIN system. For that purpose we have used the Google Cloud Messaging technology. Google Cloud Messaging allows us to send notifications from our server to the Android devices with our application installed and makes it simple and reliable. That way a smart phone can act as a pager. When notifying we have taken into account user preferences regarding the field, status and location of the incidents and an aspect of user's context, his location.
