| Abstract(in English) | A new tsunami observation system has been developed, which employs the real-time kinematic (RTK)-GPS technique to detect a tsunami before it reaches the coast. The system consists of a GPS buoy, data acquisition system, data processing system and the monitoring system of the estimated position of the buoy. A new buoy has been anchored at about 2km away from the coast of Ofunato city, along Sanriku coast, northeastern Japan, since January 23rd, 2001. Reverse RTK processing for one second sampling data is conducted at the base station and the estimated position of the buoy is further transmitted to the city hall and the fire station of the city for real time monitoring. Data can also be watched and downloaded through web page (http://tsunami.ekankyo21.com/) with about 30 minutes of delay. Combination of this system with an appropriate warning system will provide a powerful tool for mitigating tsunami hazard. |
