Objectives
Prevention of the natural disasters generated by earthquakes
in cross-border area Romania-Bulgaria, developing the early
warning integrated communication network and capacity
building at local level based on results of research in this field
Assessment of the seismic risk degree and the earthquakes
effects in the Romania Bulgaria cross-border area, based on
the updating of the current database existed in the two
countries specialized institutions and on the geological,
economical and social particularities
To develop and implement an integrated seismic detection
network with IT&C facilities for risk assessment and risk
scenarios
Increase the capacity at local institutions/emergency
intervention units for joint response activities in the case of
disasters based on a efficient preparedness for citizens and
local institutions hospitals, schools, businesses in crossborder area
Vrancea seismicity
Conditions for earthquake warning
system
- High seismic activity
- Small epicenter area: 30 x 70 km2
- Seismic information from long time
EWS is based on the difference between speed of S and P seismic waves and data
transmission speed. Usually it is a time period ranging from several seconds to a minute.

NETWORK CONECTIONS
Communication Technology is recognized as an
essential point in the disaster management for a long
time, and includes:
Message sound - to the users via communication systems TETRA, SMS, RDS /
TMC (25 seconds before S wave arrival in site)
Message - "In the next 24 seconds following an earthquake with M = 6.5" - to
the users via communication systems TETRA, VPN, Internet, SMS, RDS / TMC
(23 seconds before S wave arrival in site)
Message Example On 8 July 2009 at 19:31:21 (Romania local time) an
earthquake occurred in the Vrancea region with magnitude 6.6 on the Richter
scale, at a depth of 90 km, I = VII, 50 km from Focsani, 40 Km to Vrancioaia, 40
km to Odobesti - to the users via communication systems TETRA,VPN,
