A new feature on Google Maps will allow users to view local and worldwide disaster alerts, and is now available to users, Google announced on 25 January. Called Google Public Alerts, the new feature draws on weather, public safety, and earthquake alerts from federal agencies to supplement Google Map searches. Whether or not an alert will appear in the results column depends on activity at a location, severity of the alert, and the search query.
