Tsunami Warnings Delivered via Mobile Phones?

January 24, 2005

This announcement came through today from a Swedish health services called MedDay:

MedDay Has Breakthrough Solution for Tsunami Warning System

MedDay has developed an alert system called RegPoint that expedites communication between health care providers and patients and is used to detect public health threats and epidemics. MedDay is working with seismologists at Upsala University to adapt the RegPoint infrastructure to send out tsunami warnings through the mobile phones of people in danger areas.

From what I understand, tsunami warning systems exist now only in the Pacific. Global systems being proposed are based on networks of water buoys, wave gauges and seismic sensors -- see this article at MSNBC.
