Abstract
Operations for a data normalization server include augmenting an emergency event notification from a regional emergency notification concentrator with situational awareness data for an emergency event characterized in the emergency event notification to provide an augmented emergency notification and providing a broadcast dispatch data object (BDDO) that is generated based on the augmented emergency notification to an Advanced Television Systems Committee (ATSC) transport encoder. The BDDO includes a dispatch message with data characterizing the emergency event notification and the situational awareness data. The operations for the data normalization server also include generating an application programming interface (API) call for an ATSC transport encoder. The ATSC transport encoder encapsulates a portion of the BDDO in a broadcast stream for an ATSC broadcaster responsive to the API call.
