中央氣象局至少應該提供RSS

The Tsunami Next Time(via WorldChanging.com):

As the ITIC tsunami information is updated on a freely-available website, the problem isn’t that the information is hidden — but you do have to go looking for it. Although there are RSS feeds for earthquake and hurricane information (and NOAA makes its national weather data freely accessible as a matter of policy), there’s no similar feed for tsunami warnings. This is unfortunate, as RSS is an ideal mechanism for distributing infrequent and irregular news updates.

SMS、即時的預警系統、RSS、從手機(symbian, windows mobile平台)也可以讀取的RSS… 等。或是進一步跟著你的geo location跑的雙向SMS:

Imagine a site which collects storm/earthquake/tsunami/disease outbreak/etc. alerts and announcements, making information available by region. You can then register your SMS number or email address with the site, and give it your current location — changeable as you travel, of course — so the site can send you updates and alerts.

這可能想太遠了,不過單看現在的中央氣象局網頁,你就會發現,若要迅速翻找所需的資訊時,不少干擾性的花俏UI,會嚴重阻礙查詢的流暢度。

這兩三天有沒有什麼新聞提到SMS/RSS和Alert System的東西?

  1. 我想對他們來說已經很盡力了
    趕在12月底之前推出 1A 級的無障礙頁面

    已經推出無障礙網頁
    再由無障礙頁面去提供RSS應該就不是很困難了
