“Genasys Protect was an easy way for us to track threats by zone (over 400 active zones during the January 2023 atmospheric river event). At any one time, we had an average of 57 highlighted zones at the evacuation advisory level. Using Genasys Protect, we knew exactly how many residents we were looking at. We could calculate exact numbers, e.g., 20,200 folks in 11,807 structures on 160,000 acres needing evacuation. (Genasys Protect) gave everyone an instant snapshot of what we were up against.”
