Indonesia Tsunami Early Warning System (TELS)

The Indonesia Tsunami Early Warning System (TELS) detects earthquakes and ocean floor movements that could generate tsunamis. It uses a network of seismic sensors and deep-ocean pressure sensors to quickly identify potential threats. When a risky event is detected, the system analyzes data and issues alerts via sirens, text messages, and media to warn communities near vulnerable coastlines. TELS aims to provide timely warnings, giving people crucial moments to evacuate and minimize damage and loss of life during tsunamis.
