EPOS will also include the relevant results and major developments obtained within several STREP-FP6 EC projects, such as SAFER (Seismic eArly warning For EuRope - www.saferproject.net/ ) and TRANSFER
(Tsunami Risk ANd Strategies For the European Region - www.transferproject.eu/ ) focused on the developing of Early Warning Systems for earthquakes and tsunami, respectively. The goal is to apply the scientific outcomes of these projects to the development and the implementation of monitoring infrastructures and ICT applicable tools.
In addition, results of the FP6 ICT Project DEWS (Distant Early Warning System - www.dews-online.org ) will give valuable developments for parts of e-science tools.
Based on the sensor integration platform of GITEWS (German Indonesian Tsunami Early Warning System - www.gitews.org ) the project aims in the development of a new generation of interoperable tsunami early warning systems integrating reliable tsunami detection and effective warning dissemination. It is foreseen to integrate so-called upstream functions as earthquake, sea level and ground deformation monitoring based on a multi sensor platform and standard based reference models for data integration and data dissemination with special focus to integrated early warning systems..
