地震 津波の会- ウェザーニュースの地震速報、防災速報アプリ

"Earthquake and Tsunami Association" is an application that quickly delivers breaking news and information about earthquakes and tsunamis. This is a new information network that allows members to think about how to convey information in an emergency together with its members.

* Important * In Ver.2.0.13, the new payment status of the Play Store compatible with Android 4.1 or later is supported. Therefore, Android 4.0 users cannot use this version.

This application is for paying members with a monthly fee of 300 yen and an annual fee of 3110 yen, and you can check the following information at any time.

[Earthquake and Tsunami Meeting Menu]

◆ As soon as an earthquake is detected, you will be notified of where you are.

Earthquake early warning service "The Last 10 Seconds"

Immediately after the occurrence of the earthquake, the observation data captured by the seismograph near the epicenter is analyzed. Based on the GPS location information, we will estimate the seismic intensity and arrival time of the earthquake where you are at that time, and will inform you as quickly as possible.

You can also set the Earthquake Early Warning to sound even if your device is in silent mode in case of emergency.

When the app is launched, a voice countdown will notify you of the arrival of the earthquake.

(Please note that using location information (GPS) in the background may increase battery consumption.)

◆ "Earthquake information" and "Tsunami information" that connect quickly

We will inform you of the latest earthquake information (earthquake source, magnitude, seismic intensity in each area, etc.) and tsunami information (tsunami height forecast, arrival forecast time, high tide time, observed value) earlier than anywhere else.

In addition, you can check and report real-time information on the shaking of earthquakes from the field.

◆ The world's first "tsunami radar" information that can observe and capture tsunamis every 2 seconds

Weathernews has independently developed a "tsunami radar" that observes and captures tsunamis with the aim of reducing damage caused by tsunamis. Based on the tsunami observation data, if a large tsunami occurs, you can visualize its approach and arrival, which can be useful for disaster prevention and mitigation.

◆ Delivering the latest information when an earthquake or tsunami occurs "Notice from the Geographical Center"

The Weathernews Geographical Center, which uses tsunami radar and other infrastructure to monitor geological phenomena around the world 24 hours a day, will provide disaster prevention and disaster information regarding earthquakes and tsunamis at any time in the event of an emergency.

◆ "Disaster mitigation training" that regularly conducts connection tests and operation checks with members

Because it is an infrastructure that "always connects quickly" even in the event of an earthquake or tsunami, we conduct regular connection tests with our members. Based on the results, we will continue to improve the application and increase the number of servers.

◆ "Disaster mitigation column" where you can deepen your knowledge of the latest disaster mitigation efforts and disaster mitigation

◆ "Notice & Developer Blog" to share important information such as disaster mitigation training schedule and progress of defects with members

In order to provide members with an infrastructure that "always connects quickly" even in the event of an earthquake or tsunami, this "Earthquake and Tsunami Association" will conduct regular connection tests with members and strengthen appropriate dedicated servers. In addition to doing so as appropriate, it has the characteristic of building new infrastructure and services as the number of members increases. By always connecting you to the "Earthquake and Tsunami Association" via a network, you will be able to grasp the detailed situation in real time even in the event of a sudden earthquake or tsunami, and damage will be taken so that individual disaster prevention and mitigation activities can be taken promptly. It will be useful for mitigation.

Note) When announcing information such as earthquake early warnings and tsunami warnings, congestion may occur due to restrictions on mobile carriers, so connect via Wi-Fi to ensure smooth use of the "Earthquake Tsunami Association". We recommend it.
