  1. A “Next-Generation” Seismic Hazards Alert/Analysis Tool for the Modern EOC Disaster Resistant California 2004 Hugo Rico Jr. Margaret Vinci Project Coordinator Mgr. Earthquake Programs hugo@gps.caltech.edumvinci@gps.caltech.edu

  2. The CISN – Who we are? • Founding Members • OES • USGS • CGS • UC Berkeley • Caltech • Contributing Members • Other Universities • Regional Utilities • Other Gov. Agencies • ANSS Member • CA Component of Nationwide Initiative http://www.cisn.org

  3. Motivation of a better tool? • Replace Aging CUBE/REDI system • Low throughput • No Internet connectivity • DOS only • Aging hardware • Not scaleable • Develop better tools for Emergency Managers

  4. The CISN Display – Its Benefits • Seismic hazards alert tool for the modern EOC • Scaleable • Redundant • Persistent • Highly configurable • Automated • Platform Independent • Integrated

  5. The CISN Display– How does it work? • Client requests a connection – Port 443 • Client redirected to an ‘Event Channel’ - Port 443 • Subscribes to ‘Event Channel’ - Port 80 QuakeWatch Server CISN Display Client Internet

  6. The CISN Display– How does it work? • Subscribes to ‘Event Channel’ - Port 80 • Earthquake/Product Message! • Client may go out-of-band and retrieve information Internet Product Generators Firewall

  7. The CISN Display – What it delivers • Products it will provide • Focal Mechanisms/ Moment Tensors • Waveform Traces • CIIM pages (Felt Reports) • ShakeMap • Hazus shapefiles* • Station Lists*

  8. CISN Display - Obstaclesto itsRelease • Geographically Dispersed QWServers • Client to Server Login/Authentication • Adequate User Documentation • Compile a GIS Library • Other Improvements • Addressing “firewall problem” issues

  9. The CISN Display - System Requirements • Hardware (Minimum recommended) • CPU: PIII, 1 GHz • RAM: 384 MB or Higher • System Software • Any OS w/ JAVA (JRE 1.4.X or higher) installed • Network Connectivity • IP address (Registered or Private) • Access to our QuakeWatch Servers on ports 80/443 or 39 without Proxy Server • Client Software • CISN Display • CISN Display User • Familiarity with their resident operating system
