Seismic Alert System

A Seismic Alert System detects early signs of an earthquake, such as initial, less damaging seismic waves called P-waves. These alerts are generated seconds before the more destructive S-waves arrive, giving people and infrastructure crucial moments to take protective actions. The system uses sensitive sensors to monitor ground motion, processes data rapidly, and sends alerts through various channels like sirens, apps, or public broadcasts. This early warning can help reduce injuries, save lives, and minimize property damage by allowing people to seek shelter or pause critical operations before the strong shaking begins.
