Abstract

Earthquake disasters are frequent, causing severe property damage and loss of life. When earthquake disasters strike, the most important task is to mobilize the rescue personnel. In order to transmit disaster information and warnings to various Emergency Operation Centers (EOC) and call up the emergency response teams, a fast and easy-to-use messaging system is needed. This paper applied the concept of Database Management System (DBMS) to implement a system capable of such messaging task using FoxPro. With login validation, the system can provide a mechanism to send short messages and allow qualified users to create, delete, or modify communication data in the database. It is believed that this system will be very valuable in delivering SMS to emergency response personnel to speed up the rescue operations after various natural or man-made disasters.
