      This module delves into the structure and characteristics of a CAP (Common Alerting Protocol) message. Students will learn how CAP messages are encoded in XML, making them machinereadable and easily transmittable over various communication systems. The lesson covers the essential elements of a CAP message, such as the predefined XML tags and their corresponding values, which are used to standardize alert messages. Additionally, the lesson will explore how these elements facilitate filtering, routing, and automated translation to human languages, ensuring that alerts are timely and relevant to the recipients. Practical examples of CAP messages will be examined to illustrate these concepts.
