Genasys Protect & LRAD

Be Prepared for Extreme Winter Storms

Winter storms span jurisdictions, last for days or weeks, and slowly degrade power, communications, and staffing. They force emergency managers, firefighters, and law enforcement leaders to make high-stakes decisions with incomplete information and limited resources. Genasys supports these agencies with centralized, intuitive systems that simplify coordination, maintain situational awareness, and sustain clear public communication as conditions worsen.

Protective Communications During Extreme Winter Storms

Genasys Protect centralizes alerting, situational awareness, and coordination in a single platform, giving agencies and jurisdictions a shared, map-based common operating picture during winter storms. This unified view keeps teams aligned across departments and mutual aid partners, making it easier to manage large, multi-jurisdictional responses.

Genasys Protect delivers targeted, multi-channel alerts through SMS, email, social media, IPAWS, and more, maximizing reach. Precise communication zones reduce alert fatigue by ensuring the public knows that messages they receive apply to them and acts accordingly.

As winter storms degrade power and communications infrastructure, Genasys Acoustics provides a resilient, device-independent layer for public warning. Long-range, intelligible voice broadcasts continue functioning when cellular and internet networks fail, allowing agencies to deliver life-saving instructions to people without access to digital alerts.

Genasys also provides a public-facing map where communities can access vetted information such as shelter locations, road closures, and zone status with threat levels and instructions. This reduces inbound 911 calls, helps agencies respond to public questions consistently, and keeps emergency resources focused on urgent needs.

Genasys enables sustained response with resilient communication, shared awareness, and coordinated decision-making.
