Earthquake early warning

◎

Earthquake early warning notifies areas where a strong shaking (Japan seismic scale 4 or more) is expected when an earthquake whose maximum Japan seismic scale is predicted of 5-lower or more has been detected.

◎ This service detects an earthquake (P-wave, preliminary trem ors) near the

seismic center immediately after the earthquake occurs and automatically calculates its location, scale and predicted strength of the shaking. After that, you will be notified of the earthquake as soon as possible within a few seconds to dozens of seconds before a strong shaking from the earthquake (S-wave, principal shock) occurs.

◎ In the vicinity of the seismic center, a strong shaking may reach you before

an earthquake early warning.

◎ The earthquake early warning distribution system provided by this service

is different from that provided by TV, radio and other communication media and thus the arriving time of earthquake early warnings may be different among those media.

Tsunami warning

◎ Tsunami warning notifies areas including target sea coasts of tsunami

warnings (major tsunami and tsunami) provided by the Japan Meteorological Agency.

Disaster/Evacuation information

◎ Disaster/Evacuation information notifies information related to the safety of

citizens, such as evacuation advisories, evacuation orders or various alarms delivered by the national government or the local governments.
