Outreach MissionOutreach Mission
To identify, develop, promote
and disseminate information
about earthquake products and
new technologies produced by
the California Integrated Seismic Network (CISN)
Outreach ObjectivesOutreach Objectives Identify CISN products that have implications for public safety or
increasing earthquake awareness and understanding
Develop mechanisms for information and technology transfer to specific target audiences
Present new real-time information and technologies in formats that can be readily assimilated by users
Target critical users for CISN products and work with them to facilitate use
Obtain feedback from targeted users regarding utilization and recommendations for improvement in CISN products
Coordinate outreach efforts among the CISN member institutions and the Advanced National Seismic System

Wouldn’t It Be Great If:Wouldn’t It Be Great If:
Critical real-time information was available in one convenient web-based package?
This package was specifically designed for emergency responders?
It was free of charge and continuously maintained and upgraded?
You didn’t have to wait 10 years to get it?
What is it?An earthquake notification system that: Replaces CUBE and REDI displays Is a web-based application that is platform independent It is a gateway to many real-time information products Is quick, reliable, flexible and secure
Provides magnitude and location, access to ShakeMap, strong motion records, HAZUSloss estimates, situation reports and other information in one application

Outreach Objective: CISN DisplayOutreach Objective: CISN Display
Develop a strategy and timetable for the dissemination of this product to targeted users
Pre-Dissemination Activities– Monitor development and beta testing of the CISN
Display– Obtain both informal and formal feedback from beta
test users– Expand “Help-Desk” capability in anticipation of
transfer– Prepare, review and critique documentation for
download and operation
CISN Display Dissemination CISN Display Dissemination StrategyStrategy
Assumptions:– Dissemination will be phased, targeting groups
according to priorities established by the OWG– Target audiences will require tailored strategies based
on function, technical sophistication, etc– Use a “no target group left behind” approach (will
make every attempt to saturate target before moving on)
– Make sure progress of transfer does not exceed capabilities of system.
Priority Target Groups: CISN DisplayPriority Target Groups: CISN Display
Stage I (Year 1)– OES and FEMA, Headquarters and Regions– California State Agencies w/Emergency
Response and Recovery Functions– All Operational Areas in California
Priority Target Groups: CISN DisplayPriority Target Groups: CISN Display
Stage II (Year 2)– All local jurisdictions, including special districts– California utility and lifeline operators– All divisions of USGS in EQ Hazards Program– All seismic network operators in the nation– NOAA, NIST, NIBS, science oriented committees of
Congress– Earth science and engineering centers (e.g. SCEC,
PEER– NGO’s active in disaster response and recovery
Priority Target Groups: CISN DisplayPriority Target Groups: CISN Display
Stage III (Year 3)– Emergency management personnel for large
companies in California– News Organizations in California– California school districts– Hospitals in California
Stage IV (Year 4-5)– Available to all interested parties
Methods of DisseminationMethods of Dissemination
Workshops with a “hands-on” orientation for specific target groups
Detailed communication of information through letters to organizational directors
Focused communication via e-mail, special web-pages and presentations to meetings/conferences
As feasible, one-on-one orientation of specific target organizations

CISN.org as an Outreach ToolCISN.org as an Outreach Tool
The website is our public face and a basic tool for outreach. It:– Highlights our multi-organizational cooperation– Is a gateway to EQ info from many sources– It places California in the context of ANSS– Provides an avenue for raising awareness of new real-time
products– Is a vehicle for product and outreach performance evaluation– Features “My CISN” giving users the opportunity to
customize the website to maximize it’s utility

Real-Time Strong Motion Information
Real-Time Strong Motion InformationReal-Time Strong Motion Information CGS administers CSMIP with over 900 stations,
650 ground response, 170 in buildings, 20 dams and 60 bridges
Real-Time telemetry for strong motion instruments is a recent development
Essential for a robust ShakeMap
Near real-time information from instrumented buildings basis for rapid damage assessment
Engineering community can learn much about damage from strong motion data (e.g. improve building codes, earthquake resistant design)
