Protected Areas
The IRIS warning product
(WARN) allows you to define up to 32 protected areas.
If the warning results fall into one of the selected protected areas, a signal is sent to all the IRIS terminals.
Each protected area consists of a rectangle. You can define the location, size, and orientation.
 | If the area you wish to protect is of an irregular shape, you can piece it together with several areas. |
