Question

Using Common Alerting Protocol (CAP), IPAWS alerts are capable of transporting __________. A. Short Message Service (SMS) text messages B. rich, multi-media attachments as well as hyperlinks C. single alerts translated into five or more languages D. plain text messages only

Answer 1

The correct option is;

B. Rich, multi-media attachments as well as hyperlinks

Step-by-step explanation:

The Common Alerting Protocol (CAP) is used by IPAWS for digital messages formatting

With CAP, it is possible to add multimedia content such as pictures videos and hyperlinks (IPAWS tip for July 2018) in messages which can be used where there is not enough space to include all relevant information in a Wireless Emergency Alert (WEA) text such that the link can provide further direction or feedback to the community.
