Asia Oceania Geosciences Society (AOGS) was established in 2003 to promote geosciences and its application for the benefit of humanity, specifically in Asia and Oceania and with an overarching approach to global issues. Asia Oceania region is particularly vulnerable to natural hazards, accounting for almost 80% human lives lost globally. AOGS is deeply involved in addressing hazard related issues through improving our understanding of the genesis of hazards through scientific, social and technical approaches. AOGS holds annual conventions providing a unique opportunity of exchanging scientific knowledge and discussion to address important geo-scientific issues among academia, research institution and public. Recognizing the need of global collaboration, AOGS has developed good co-operation with other international geo-science societies and unions such as the European Geosciences Union (EGU), American Geophysical Union (AGU), International Union of Geodesy and Geophysics (IUGG), Japan Geo-science Union (JpGU), and Science Council of Asia (SCA).

Geobit & ISTI join together at the AGU Annual Meeting in San Francisco, 11 – 15 Dec 2023.

We are glad to announce that we are exhibiting at the AGU Annual Meeting 2023.

With 65+ years of combined experience, GEObit and ISTI are joining forces to become the most competitive and fastest growing joint venture group in the seismic monitoring services industry.

Providing state-of-the-art seismic instruments, network design, installation techniques, data monitoring and processing services, our group is able to deliver a cost-effective total solution to the energy exploration & production industry, especially to the oil, gas and geothermal sector. Our key benefits are that we produce in-house hardware and software while installing and maintaining the microseismic monitoring network to ensure a high level of data quality and availability. In other words, we make the technology – we apply the technology – we offer the technology.

We have worldwide experience having installed and operated seismic networks all over the world, from Indonesia/Papua jungle to the Middle East desert, from Alaska glaciers to Himalayan Mountains. In the USA, we are currently running many dedicated microseismic monitoring projects with over 200 stations installed in the past 10 years.

Earthquake Early Warning System

Case studies

Geobit, April 2023

1. Introduction

Early warning systems are used to alert users a few seconds before a strong earthquake hits the protected area. The system is able to detect the primary p-waves of an earthquake and produce am alarm prior s-waves arrival. The system can be used to switch off critical facilities or machines and alert people for upcoming earthquakes.

2. Principles of Operation

Typically, acceleration sensors are installed in the surrounding area of the protected infrastructure. Several sensors are required for making sure that the system will be not noise sensitive. The sensor is transmitting data in real time to a server which runs special acquisition & analysis software. The software using quick earthquake detection mechanisms, mainly based on the quick detect of the p-wave arrival of an earthquake, is able to generate an alarm and activate a switch relay in case of an earthquake.

3. Installation

Low-cost hardware is used for this application, like the GEOBIT GEOwarning low cost accelerograph. The accelerographs operate in trigger mode so they are able to generate a trigger in case of earthquake. The trigger information is transmitted to the GEOedge software, that decided if the triggers are related with an earthquake or not. If yes, the GEOegde informs the user via email-sms an instantly generates a switch relay (or more if required) which is connected to the acquisition computer.
