OASIS (Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards) is a non-profit consortium that drives the development, convergence, and adoption of open standards for the global information society. The consortium produces more Web services standards than any other organization, along with standards for security, e-commerce, government and law, the public sector, and for application-specific markets.
OASIS developed the Common Alerting Protocol (CAP), a simple but general format for exchanging all-hazard emergency alerts and public warnings over different networks. CAP allows a consistent warning message to be disseminated simultaneously through many disparate warning systems, increasing notification effectiveness while simplifying the warning task.
AtHoc is an OASIS Sponsor and an active participant of both the Emergency Management Technical Committee and the Emergency Interoperability (EI) Member Section.
