Information-dependent lead time maps for earthquake early warning in the Camapania region Done so far: RT- PSHA & Threshold setUncertainty AnalysisTo doLead-Time Maps How to set the alarm threshold: a simple example Lets consider a simple school class equipped with a ringer and suppose that the students are trained to shelter under the desks when the alarm is issued. What Causes Loss: 1.Structural collapse (causes death) 2.Non-structural collapse (causes injury and eventually death) 3.False alarm (cause panic and down-time loss) Security action 1.Sheltering below desks may reduce losses in the case of non-structural collapse

Information-dependent lead time maps for earthquake early warning in the Camapania region Done so far: RT- PSHA & Threshold setUncertainty AnalysisTo doLead-Time Maps Uncertainty Analysis Findings Uncertainty on distance is confirmed to be negligible in EEW calculations; Also uncertainty on magnitude, altough larger than distance, is small if compared to that of the attenuation law; It is important to compute the hazard analysis including the uncertainty of the attenuation, which is the most important (this allows to copute missed and false alarm rates); To issue the alarm it is important to assess whether the level of information it is stable. E.g., triggering more station does not change the decision of alarming or not.

Information-dependent lead time maps for earthquake early warning in the Camapania region Done so far: RT- PSHA & Threshold setUncertainty AnalysisTo doLead-Time Maps Lead-time maps, defined on a 2700 nodes grid covering the whole Campanian territory, have been computed as a function of the number of stations triggered. Events occurring in the area covered by the ISNet infrastructure have been consideredred (hypocentral depths in Campania are small ranging from ~ 4 to ~ 12 km).
