Abstract
A system, method and storage medium for providing an emergency vehicle alert includes a first device collecting EV-related data, a management server receiving the EV-related data from the first device, the management server determining a geofence for the EV by dynamically adjusting a size or shape of the geofence at least based on a velocity of the EV-related data, the management server generating a safety warning signal including geofence information associated with the determined geofence, the management server transmitting the safety warning signal to a second device, a second device receiving the safety warning signal, the second device determining whether the another vehicle is located within the geofence based on the safety warning signal, the second device performing one or more alert actions when the another vehicle is located within the geofence, and the second device performing no alert action when the another vehicle is out of the geofence.
