Abstract
A method for providing targeted alerts by a telecommunications system includes receiving, by a server subsystem, an alert message from an alert originator system. The alert message indicates an emergency associated with an area. The method includes passing the alert message to multiple mobile devices. The method also includes receiving a request message at a lookup subsystem of the telecommunications system generated by an instance of a mobile application on a mobile device based on the alert message. The method includes performing a lookup at a database for additional information associated with the alert message. The additional information identifies the geographic area associated with the emergency. The method further includes communicating the additional information to the particular mobile device thereby enabling the instance of the mobile application to perform an action related to the alert message to a user of the particular mobile device.
