By leveraging AI and IoT technologies, the project strives to deliver well-rounded, smart living services to facilitate the government and the people in responding to the challenges in an ever-changing environment.

Customized urban earthquake early warning system

Solution Description

Smart Governance

The Central Weather Administration (CWA) is the government agency responsible for earthquake monitoring and reporting in Taiwan. In order to reduce fatalities and property losses caused by earthquakes, a high-density real-time seismic network and the advanced earthquake early warning (EEW) system have been implemented and in operation. Currently, the CWA EEW system can issue the warning message in about 10 seconds after a strong earthquake occurring in or very near Taiwan. Starting from 2021, in order to further enhance the benefit of EEW to the practical earthquake hazard mitigation, the CWA has begun to develop the customized urban EEW system. By means of introducing the on-site earthquake early warning methods, and developing the artificial intelligence models. The systems, particularly for the big urban shallow earthquake, aim to further shorten the time of EEW to 7 seconds. That means it can give warning to the areas about 25 km away from the epicenter, and more people could be alerted before the destructive shaking.

Operation of Air Quality Forecast System
This exhibition is an atmospheric physical-chemical grid model for prediction of changes in air quality, utilizing data from the U.S. NCEP global weather forecast and regional air pollutant emissions. Local scientific investigation data has been used to adjust and calibrate the model and thereby largely improve the accuracy of the air quality forecast over Taiwan. The system is capable of simulating the changes in air quality over the next three days (72 hours) in Taiwan, with a temporal resolution of 1 hour and a spatial resolution of 3 km. The simulated data can be integrated with air quality data from the Civil IoT Taiwan, informing regulatory authorities the changes in air quality for the near future, and key information for formulation of control strategies

Smart irrigation and water-saving management technology
In the past, human operation and judgment were required, but now technology assists people in handling water distribution work. Set up water level or flow sensing devices in important water supply channels and transmit the collected data to the information management platform. Using online information or mobile APPs, water stewards can instantly grasp the field water distribution to achieve the goals of saving manpower and accurately allocating water. Taking the research results of the Jianan Irrigation District as an example, water stewards management can save about 20 to 25% of water by allocating irrigation water. If it is combined with Smart irrigation system, it can save another 5% of water. Currently, Water Resources Department, MOEA continues to cooperate with National Science and Technology Council, Ministry of Agriculture to gradually expand to 3,000 hectares in the Jianan Irrigation District and 3,000 hectares in the Kaohsiung Irrigation District, and gradually promote Smart irrigation and water-saving management technology.

Hybrid earthquake early warning system cloud platform
NCREE has developed a Hybrid earthquake early warning system (EEWS) by integrating on-site EEWS from NCREE and regional EEWS from Central Weather Administration (CWA). Within a 10 to 100-kilometer radius from the earthquake epicenter in the local region, this system can provide 3 to 15 seconds of warning time. To achieve effective alerts with the available warning time, the utilization of a Hybrid EEWS cloud platform is crucial. This platform facilitates the transmission of alerts and the affected administrative regions to various industries. Industries, in turn, leverage these alerts to develop warning systems and automated control devices tailored to meet the specific requirements of different environments. This approach aims to minimize secondary damages resulting from earthquakes, transforming EEWS beyond being notifications received Presidential Alert on mobile phones. Instead, it offers a multi-faceted alerting and disaster reduction application system tailored to different environmental settings.

The application of digital twin technology
The application of digital twin technology in building smart cities is becoming increasingly clear, serving as a crucial engine for driving urban transformation. In the development of smart cities in recent years, citizens can view the growth and development of the entire city, including population growth, new construction, and other major activities, in a 3D format, gradually emphasizing the concept of a virtual city. Digital twin technology can simulate disaster scenarios, including weather events and traffic accidents, assisting disaster response personnel in rapidly understanding the situation and optimizing the efficiency of disaster response. In recent years, with the advancement of aerial photography, simulation technology, and computing resources, The National Science and Technology Center for Disaster Reduction has leveraged advanced technology to create a mountainous flood inundation model system. This system enhances disaster warning and impact analysis, providing a comprehensive view of vulnerable settlements. It utilizes dynamic models and virtual-real integration, presenting alert information and disaster impacts through visual elements, contributing to informed decision-making in disaster situations.
