Disaster Alert (PDC Global) Avis

Disaster Alert is a free mobile app for public use that provides the global community with critical hazard alerts and information needed to stay safe anywhere in the world.

With Disaster Alert, you can customize early warning alerts, view estimated impact reports, and access visualized modeled hazard data.

When no official source is available, alerts are updated manually by Pacific Disaster Center, presenting only a small lapse of time between the time of an event and the availability of information in the system.
