While web mapping has numerous advantages over conventional mapping techniques like affordability, integration, and collaboration, it features multiple disadvantages. For example, reliability issues have been a concern for some time now. The web server infrastructure and internet reliability, in general, still need to be improved. And that’s why most web mapping platforms today are not 100% reliable.

Now imagine in the event of an emergency. There is no doubt that these reliability issues can be critical. A web mapping platform can tell first responders that they have arrived while, in the real sense, they are approximately three or four houses down the road.

And that’s where the Life Saving Beacon from Inventor Marina G. Garcia come in. Please keep reading to learn more about the Life Saving Beacon, including its features and benefits.

What is Life Saving Beacon?

So, what is Life Saving Beacon? The Life Saving Beacon is an invention from Inventor Marina G. Garcia of Huntsville, AL, that allows first responders to locate the exact home that needs help during an emergency.

Marina knew that rural and some urban areas experienced the challenges of poor road lighting and poor identification of mailboxes. In addition, the fact that many mailboxes in these areas are far from their respective houses poses a challenge to emergency teams when finding a residence that needs assistance.

Inventor Marina knew that various web mapping platforms could help first responders. Unfortunately, they are not 100% reliable. Therefore, she invented the Life Saving Beacon as a better way to spot a home from a distance, especially when every second counts.
