Abstract
A computer-implemented method of receiving and processing a wireless emergency alert at a vehicle comprises receiving, at a computer system of the vehicle, the wireless emergency alert over a wireless communication network. The wireless emergency alert may include an alert message and geographical coordinates defining one or more alert areas associated with the emergency alert. The method may further include comparing, via the vehicle computer system, a current location of the vehicle with the geographical coordinates to determine whether the vehicle is within or near the alert area(s) and, if the vehicle is within or near the alert area(s), generating via the computer system a map illustrating the current location of the vehicle with respect to the alert area(s), and displaying the map at a display screen of the vehicle.
