ShakeAlert: An earthquake warning from your cellphone 

😮😮😮😮😮😮

yeah... everything since they open their system to manufacturer and you can easily get a permit to add the system to your own equipment while the US have restriction what you can place it in.

AGREED :)

What is the app?

@@3oshcee its not an app its a program made by the japanese government

There is no need to use this app in Japan. If you don't have it, but you can notice earthquake alerts easily, because many people around you have it. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-td9mWoIgALw.html

LMFAO

It's the seconds that has passed after the earthquake

earthquake will arrive in -8 seconds.

Earthquake will occur in -7 years

[someone from Mexico here]. In fact countdowns are not as easy or reliable as one would really think. This is because there are 3 main factors, the first is the origin/distance of the first sensors (since a good part of the arrival time depends on how far or near it has occurred) The second is that not all earthquakes spread and move in the same way. and the third and most important are the delays in decoding and network saturation. [one of the reasons why, for example, the Mexican seismic alert system has plans but has not yet adopted the Cell Broadcast model and despite the existence of mobile Apps these are not reliable] and instead is based on the NOAA weather band and EBS radio and TV. -so that, for example, in practice for Mexico City, the average warning time is 50 seconds; however, there are cases in which the time has reached almost 2 minutes or very short [20-30 seconds, in coastal areas it is sometimes only 10-15 seconds] or, for example, as in what happened in 2017, since it was an internal earthquake, there was no alert because it occurred much closer to the city than to the sensor area itself. In turn, the type of soil affects a lot so that there are areas where it begins to be felt before others and in some cases the soil itself acts as an amplifier and is perceived or creates more damage than the rest. [so a countdown could be more dangerous in terms of someone who could get more stressed, or trust because "they still have time"]. Here on youtube the community of fans of the system have several videos where we compare the performance of the system based on the monitor of the sensors (which shows a simulation of the waves and time of arrival) the response of the radios and the images or effects on TV (or in some cases at home) -Other systems, like the Japanese, also do not show countdowns for the same reasons (and because in general, being a relatively small country, even in their videos you can notice that the times between the alert and the movement are minimal)

ikr

We aren't near the tectonic plates so we're okay.

@@samuelvista Where do you live in? Why no earthquake warning apps?

@@magicanimal176production5 oh nvm, you said WA. I thought you meant the entirety of Australia.

but i thought australians didnt give a shit about quakes

Is there cell broadcast in Australia though?

The problem is that the EAS was designed to be set up in certain areas for the alerts. You can't just automatically send one out, you have to manually highlight/select what areas get the alert and then type out a message and then you got to send it, then the message has to decode BEFORE it can be broadcasted. By this point, earthquakes hits, and people are dead/injured. It can't be linked to the EAS because the EAS is terribly slow for this kind of thing. It's quick, sure, but it isn't THAT quick.

Is that the app screaming *ALERTA SISMICA* on repeat?

Yes, that's it @@ianhomerpura8937

​@@ianhomerpura8937 It is possible you're describing the street speakers system!, usually the apps play out an alarm and also the expected magnitude and/or show on screen how much time its left before you feel it on your area [At least that's from the apps I have used/known]

Probably not. Sirens aren't loud enough to reach people who are indoors or doing noisy work. Something close and on your person is almost guaranteed to get your attention.

But not the dishes.

はい,　　中国でも同じ　ははは😂

Most of the injuries from earthquakes in properly constructed buildings is from flying objects, like glass, bookcases, etc.

That's the same thing I thought

bmo That's not true. Most injuries come from people trying to run or walk to safer areas during the quakes.

Joe Diver The sad part is that we've had the funds for almost a decade to give all Californians access, but every few months, USGS says that they don't have enough money or that it's still "being tested". It's been proven over and over to properly and accurately work, so I want to know the real reason! I've been told by a neighbor who works for USGS that the "higher ups" don't want us to have it because it would "scare" the public.

Mexico for more time

Joe Diver Actually in turkey we dont

i think south korean should get that system incase of earthquake though.

Lilly Curtis Gaming yeah that’s hard to believe

damn bro, but I really gotta wonder who asked

@@greyfiveys I see that username, what rank?

@@NoTraceOfSense I'm decaying rn but last time I checked 830k

Modern android Phones have it built in now

you think everything is from china💀💀

@@Aviatorgorilla no but in Chinese device they have that kind (very different)

@@bodoqueBG ohh

Japans EEW is pretty accurate and on time wdym?
