Datacasting
Digital television has opened the door to the use of datacasting technology which permits us to distribute additional data within our digital signal. WOSU is one of the Ohio PTV stations currently partnering with the Ohio Emergency Management agency to use this technology to transmit emergency alerting and public safety information around the state.
