HORIZON-CL3-2024-DRS-01-04 Hi-tech capacities for monitoring earthquakes, tsunamis, crisis response and recovery after a natural-technological (NaTech) disaster

Bogazici University, Kandilli Observatory and Earthquake Research Institute, Regional Earthquake Tsunami Monitoring Center monitor earthquakes and Tsunamis 7/24 and disseminates early warning messages.

KOERI coordinates several national and international projects o achieve an improvement and a long-term impact in the assessment and reduction of the vulnerability of constructions and citizens to earthquakes, to provide a community-based seismic hazard model, to improve the efficiency of real time earthquake risk mitigation methods and its capability of protecting structures, infrastructures and people, and aims to establishing the best practice on how to use jointly all the information coming from earthquake forecasts, early warning systems, and real time monitoring data, assessment of earthquake hazard, the associated risk in terms of structural damages, casualties and economic losses and also at the evaluation of the effects of relevant mitigation measures, reduce the risk posed by natural and anthropogenic earthquakes & tsunamis based on innovative research and development projects together with strengthening the resilience of vulnerable communities to earthquakes and tsunamis and other sea level-related hazards.
