Progress in Coordination of regional Tsunami Warning Systems EC Info-Day on Tsunami Early Warning Systems Paris, 31 January 2006 Patricio Bernal, UNESCO ADG and Executive Secretary of IOC EUROPEAN COMMISSION Information Society and Media Directorate-General Components and Systems ICT for the Environment

1965: IOC established the ICG/ITSU International Coordination Group for the Tsunami Warning System in the Pacific (TWSP) -> successful & operational Tsunami Warning & Mitigation system March & April 2005: Considering the devastating tsunami on Dec 26 th 2004, two International Coordination meetings on the Development of an IO TWS took place in Paris and Mauritius

June 21-30, 2005: the 23 rd IOC General Assembly decided resolutions on the establishment of a global and three regional Intergovernmental Coordination Groups on TEWS (XXIII-12 to XXXIII-15) for - the Indian Ocean (ICG/IOTWS) - the Caribbean (ICG/CARTWS) - the NE Atlantic and Med (ICG/NEAMTWS)

Three more regions to coordinate

03-05 Aug 2005: ICG/IOTWS-I, Perth Nov 2005: ICG/NEAMTWS-I, Rome Dec 2005: ICG/IOTWS-II, Hyderabad Jan 2006: ICG/CARTWS-I, Barbados and to come: April/May 2006: ICG/ITSU-XXI, Melbourne May 2006: ICG/NEAMTWS-II, Paris June 2006: ICG/IOTWS-III, Bali Dec 2006: ICG/CARTWS-II, Venezuela Intergovernmental Coordination Group meetings

Besides the ongoing coordination activities several IOC collaboration projects could be funded to significantly update instrumentation for sea level and seismic networks, especially in the Indian Ocean. Nevertheless an end-to- end Warning System includes lots of “soft technology” like capacity building, guidance and preparedness-planning and there is still a need to incorporate new communication technologies.
