Abstract
The aim of the project CAEM is to
provide a qualitatively new approach to early warning systems for geo-physical
hazards such as earthquakes and tsunamis, by using Computer Aided Solutions and
innovative methods, tools, and devices of Information and Communication
Technology.
The Computer Aided early warning system
in Earth Management, CAEMS, is characterised by user-computer communication and
the transfer of knowledge of the experts to the CAEMS for the recognition of
possible risk situations, and by the optimised support delivered to the people
in risk regions by CAEMS. With the application of this strategy the Risk
Managers are able to decide for early warning in the shortest possible time and
with a far higher level of decision-making quality. The application of
web-technologies and wireless transmission technologies guarantees the quickest
information to those in positions of responsibility and to those who are
potentially affected.
The patented method of Virtual Sources
VQ brings a new level of quality of signal analysis and signal recognition in
real-time. The method of VQ works in the time domain and is in contrast to
established and well-known methods such as FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) and the
Wavelet Transform.
The experience and the international cooperation in the
development of Computer Aided Solutions are the basis for the development of our
first application as a prototype and the generalization of the solution for Risk
Management with shortest possible recognition and reaction time, and optimised
information transfer. These activities are supported by an international
consortium of the Network of Excellence CARiMan with high-ranked and well-known
international partners (see www.ICSRoscher.de/CARiMan.htm).
On the basis of the established Network of Excellence CARiMan is founded an
international activity for technology transfer, dissemination of knowledge and
the first prototype of the CAEMS to further users and applications.
