Earthquake Early Warning
◎
Earthquake Early Warning is sent to areas where
strong quakes (over 4 degrees) are expected when the
earthquake whose the maximum seismic intensity 5 lower
is anticipated occurs.
◎
Immediately after an earthquake occurs, quakes (P waves
and initial tremors) near the epicenter are detected and
position, scale, and expected strength are automatically
calculated and notification is sent as soon as possible
within a few seconds to tens of seconds before the strong
quakes (S waves and major tremors) caused by the
earthquake start.
◎
Earthquake Early Warning may not arrive before strong
tremors in arrears near the epicenter.
