Operation of the Mission Critical Italian Strong-Motion Network – RAN

Featuring Dr. Mathias Franke, Kinemetrics, Inc.

The Italian Civil Protection Department (DPC) is the owner of the 500-station national Italian strong-motion network (Rete Accelerometrica Naczionale – RAN). In a move to improve the network’s station availability, DPC outsourced the network’s maintenance and operation in 2012 to Kinemetrics’ Open Systems & Services Division (OSS).

In this session, Dr. Mathias Franke will cover the RAN from station design to information products, from daily tasks to network performance, and from people to software.

This informative webinar + Q&A will provide an example of how OSS develops solutions, manages projects, and continually delivers value to clients.

The Abu Dhabi Seismic Hazard and Risk Analysis (ADSHRA)

Featuring Dr. Mohamed El Idrissi, Kinemetrics, Inc.

Join us to for a walk-through of the Abu Dhabi Seismic Hazard and Risk Analysis (ADSHRA)!

In this session, Mohamed El Idrissi, Director of Kinemetrics S.A. Switzerland will guide us through the details of this challenging and unique project.

The program was conceptualized to build an integrated system to assist regulators in formulating development policies and criteria to secure the population, present and future urban development, vital facilities and the infrastructure of the Abu Dhabi Emirate against potential adverse seismic impacts.

To achieve this strategic objective ADSHRA: (a) Developed specialized seismic monitoring systems; (b) Assessed the seismic risk of the Abu Dhabi Emirate and assured early disaster warning; (c) Established GIS shielded databases; and, (d) Ensured that all segments were interlinked in an integrated system.

This informative webinar + Q&A will help engineers, operators, and regulators understand the lessons learned from this important project.

Earthquake Early Warning – Benefits of Now-Casting

Featuring Dr.Mathias Franke, Kinemetrics, Inc.

Join us to take a look at how to improve Earthquake Early Warning (EEW) systems.

EEW has a wide range of potential benefits from public alerts to machine interaction preventing loss of life and costly damages. It also has its limitations due to network topology, geological conditions, and processing uncertainties. Extending EEW to the immediate evaluation and alerting of the ground motion – Now-Casting – is a fantastic tool to improve earthquake warning systems.

In this session, Mathias Franke will demonstrate how real-time response spectra can deliver Now-Casting in new and existing EEW systems.
