Abstract

Earthquake early warning systems are of high interest due to their consequences and life losses they may cause. Sensor Web Enablement (SWE) and their related standards allow interoperability of sensors from different vendors and detect earthquakes in advance. For the proposed system we propose the use of the Sensor Observation Service and smartphones as gateways to transmit information from their embedded sensors like the accelerometer. The paper includes an architecture to integrate and process this information, with the possibility of incorporate other sensors out of the smartphones, like seismographs and the generated date in the SOS harmonization platform. The system has been tested in an emulated environment in order to train it and eliminate false positives, improving early warning existing systems of this nature.
