Notifications

The current primary means of notification when there are errors with the system is via the Pushover app. This application provides a Rest API interface we can script custom alerts to be delievered to a group of recipients in real time. It also allows for priority in the alerts, which correspond to time-sensitive and emergency notifications in iOS. We use Pushover to send alerts when devices are in a fault condition, as well as to report hourly attendance from the car counting integration.
