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.
◎ This delivery system is different from Earthquake Early Warning
provided through TV, radio, or other communication procedures, which
means that the time the Earthquake Early Warning arrives may vary.
Tsunami Warning
◎ Tsunami Warning is a notification delivered from the meteorological
bureau (major tidal wave, seismic sea wave) to the area including
target coast.
Disaster and Evacuation Information
◎ Disaster and Evacuation Information is a service that distributes
bulletins concerning residents' safety including evacuation advisories,
evacuation orders and other warnings issued by the national and local
governments.
