Active Shooter Alert Details
‘
When an active threat alert is sent, users receive the alert with an alarm to ensure they receive the critical information. The notification identifies the location of the threat on your campus, allowing immediate situational awareness for all school personnel. With the app, authorized staff can immediately activate an active shooter alert as soon as danger is detected, helping responders act much faster. Its streamlined interface is intentionally built for crisis moments when user performance may be reduced. This alert enables swift decision-making based on where the intruder is located and what the safest course of action is for staff and students. Ongoing internal communication within the app allows everyone to stay informed about intruder movement, missing students, or class lockdowns.

About Binghamton
Binghamton is a city in, and the county seat of, broome county, new york, united states. It lies in the state’s southern tier region near the pennsylvania border, in a bowl-shaped valley at the confluence of the susquehanna and chenango rivers. Binghamton is the principal city and cultural center of the binghamton metropolitan area, home to a quarter million people. The population of the city itself, according to the 2010 census, is 47,376. From the days of the railroad, binghamton was a transportation crossroads and a manufacturing center, and has been known at different times for the production of cigars, shoes, and computers. Ibm was founded nearby, and the flight simulator was invented in the city, leading to a notable concentration of electronics- and defense-oriented firms. This sustained economic prosperity earned binghamton the moniker of the valley of opportunity. However, following cuts made by defense firms after the end of the cold war, the region has lost a significant portion of its manufacturing industry. Today, while there is a continued concentration of high-tech firms, binghamton is emerging as a healthcare- and education-focused city, with the presence of binghamton university acting as much of the driving force behind this revitalization. According to the united states census bureau, the city has a total area of 11.14 square miles. 10.49 square miles of it is land and 0.65 square miles of it is water. As of the census of 2010, there were 47,376 people, 21,150 households, and 9,986 families residing in the city. The population density was 4,516.8 per square mile. Of all households, 20.8% had children under the age of 18 living with them, 26.9% were married couples living together, 15.6% had a female householder with no husband present, 4.7% had a male householder with no wife present, and 52.8% were non-families. 40.5% of all households were made up of individuals and 25.5% had someone living alone who was 65 years of age or older. The average household size was 2.18 and the average family size was 2.94.
