Affordable Instrument Design for Seismic Monitoring, Early Warning Systems and Control Actions to Risk Mitigation

In developing countries, seismic monitoring and Early Warning Systems (EWS) networks represents enormous budget efforts that it traduces in a poor coverage of the hazardous zones. New viable and economical solutions must be found to increase these monitoring networks. Today it is possible to design and build simple and affordable experimental seismic instrumentation to create high density monitoring networks than can help Civil Protection authorities to take decisions. The main goal of this project is to propose an affordable seismic instrumentation with EWS and capable to execute some control actions to risk mitigation.
