US Patent 11869338 User preferences in responder network responder selection

Methods, user interfaces and systems are described that enable responder preferences to be considered during deployment of a public responder network. In various embodiments, a user is able to select or define an area for which incident notifications are desired or are to be restricted in some manner. The described approach is well suited for public responder networks that include medical devices such as defibrillators (e.g., AEDs) in the network.
