Our project makes environmental measurements at the time of an earthquake. Our project measures when it detects seismic waves. Data is transferred to the cloud system with the router. Our project prepares the ground for scientific studies on the moment of earthquake. This project utilizes the WisBlock infrastructure, integrating a baseboard with a 6-axis accelerometer, an environmental sensor, and a seismic sensor, to transmit information related to a seismic event to a router. This transmitted data is subsequently analyzed to provide notifications regarding the earthquake. The structure housing the WisBlock module (featured in the video) is employed as a testbed to scientifically simulate the event. Atmospheric parameters in the structure's vicinity are detected by the environmental sensor, recording anomalous changes that manifest during the seismic event. These observed changes are then generalized and correlated with data from seismic events across different regions. The resultant dataset is uploaded to a cloud-based system to facilitate its application in other research fields. Furthermore, this data is made accessible for utilization by other institutions and organizations. Within its scope, this project demonstrates the interactional dynamics of variables arising from natural disasters and highlights the synergistic advantages of their concurrent analysis.
Project Implementation Steps
1. Planning and Design
• Objective: To contribute to early warning systems by detecting environmental and
seismic changes during an earthquake.
• Problem Definition: Establishing a research infrastructure based on the hypothesis
that earthquakes can be associated not only with seismic data but also with atmospheric
changes.
• Functional Goals:
o Collect seismic and environmental data simultaneously.
o Wirelessly transmit this data to a router.
o Upload the data to a cloud platform for analysis and accessibility.
• Design Notes:
o The WisBlock module will integrate a 6-axis accelerometer, environmental sensor,
and seismic sensor.
o A structural model capable of simulating tremors will be used for testing.
