The responsibility of 2wcom in the Ocean Monitoring Project is the fast and effective distribution of the warning message to the public.

The result did prove - FM-RDS-Broadcast via radio is the best solution available to distribute the warning if time is critical.

The fast acquisition of a disaster, the evaluation and the immediate transfer of the warning to the public in time is the big challenge. The latter did prove during follow-up examination of any disaster happened in the past to be always the so called "bottle neck" problem.

• The FM- radio infrastructure is available in almost every country already - reducing the cost drastically.
• Hundreds of thousands of people can be reached at work, home, schools, hotels, large organisations, agencies, public places at the same time immediately by sending out just one signal only via FM / RDS radio! Very good propagation, regional or nation wide. The warning will be received by the FM-RDS Early Warning Receiver within 1 or 2 seconds after it has been transmitted.
• Night and Day…. Warning will be released with additional information to the areas of impact simultaneously to the public via text in the display or via loudspeaker - how to behave and what to do.
• The FM-RDS Early Warning Receiver is always active as soon as the warning signal is being transmitted via FM /RDS - Night and Day ….no matter the status of the FM-RDS Early Warning receiver - on / off or in wake-up mode. In case of power loss it is guaranteed to receive a warning within the time of 60 hours.

• Multi Purpose Benefit - to transmit additional information as well - every day.The system can be used every day to forward the information received from the sensors in the ocean for commercial use as well, e.g. tourism, information for surfer in respect of actual wind- and wave data, hotel chains, fishing industry etc. This will be a significant contribution to keep the running cost low of the system and to test the system in total every day continuously to be sure it does work properly.


• If we are allowed to have access to the power amplifier of a Mosque we can use it as well to cover wide areas very cost-effective.
• Even in regions without power we do have a solution ready based on solar energy.
• Remote control automatically - controlling of emergency light systems, traffic warning, transportation, systems, power plants, gas supply, flood barrage / river barrier, stopping trains etc.

• 100% Quality Control after receiving the warning message- including the distribution, transmission as well as the receiving path of the information.
• The system is approved by the Swedish Government / Räddnings Verket - the technology is well proven extending over several years.
  
  It is cost effective, available and immediately deployable. 47 000 units of 2wcom FM-RDS Early Warning Receiver are in use in Sweden - Night and Day…
