Subject: Developers Resource for NWS Alerts Information
The NWS plans to experimentally produce Common Alerting Protocol
(CAP) v1.2 Integrated Public Alert and Warning System (IPAWS)
profile messages by fall 2011. In preparation, the NWS has
created online documentation in a collaborative "wiki" venue for
anyone wishing to review and participate in discussion regarding
the CAP elements planned for production. This new venue is
available to the national and international community and will
be especially useful for developers and redistributors of NWS
watches, warnings, advisories and special statements.
The new wiki, hosted through the U.S. General Services
Administrations Apps.gov NOW service, includes a documentation
page and a collaborative discussion page for each CAP element
NWS plans to produce. Visitors may register for a user account
to take part in the collaborative discussion pages and be
automatically notified whenever there are changes to these and
the documentation pages.
The new wiki is located at
https://wiki.citizen.apps.gov/nws_developers
To register for a user account, click Login/create at the top
right of the page.
