Outreach MissionTo identify, develop, promote and disseminate information about earthquake products and new technologies produced by the California Integrated Seismic Network (CISN)
Outreach ObjectivesIdentify 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
Changes at OESAs of January 2007, OES Earthquake and Tsunami Program became a statewide program in the Response and Recovery Division
Consists of a manager and two professional staff
CISN remains a central component of the program
Will seek to assure ongoing funding for CISN
Will seek increased funding through legislation, bonds or other available means

Current and Planned Outreach ActivitiesCISN Display
Introduced as Version 1.0 in January 2005, the CISN Display is:An earthquake notification system that:Replaces CUBE and REDI displaysIs a web-based application that is platform independentIt is a gateway to many real-time information productsIs quick, reliable, flexible and secureProvides magnitude and location, access to ShakeMap, strong motion records, tsunami warnings, situation reports and other information in one applicationIntroduced Version 1.4 on August 17, 2007
Recent Upgrades V1.3 & 1.4Day/Night layerKiosk ModeMinor de-buggingTsunami Information BulletinsImproved Map layersAddressed firewall issues

CISN Display: 2007 ActivitiesContinued dissemination of CISN Display Via:Workshops and one-on-one demonstrationsCSTI lectures in popular earthquake courseDistribution of ShakeMap & CISN brochureExhibitions at conferences and public eventsCISN Display prominently featured in tsunami workshops and exercisesCaltech Earthquake Affiliates meetings and demos
Current and Planned Outreach ActivitiesShakeMap/HAZUS
ShakeMapOne of TriNets first productsFirst map produced 3-17-97Displays the distribution of ground shakingShows intensity, velocity, accelerationMaps available on the InternetVery rapid availability, within 5 minutes Maps generated for events M3.5Can be used to generate scenarios
ShakeMap for Large Event: Hector Mine Earthquake of 10-16-99, M7.1
ShakeMap for Small Event, Near Chatsworth, 8-9-07, M4.6
ShakeMap-Based Earthquake Exercise ScenariosIntroduces ShakeMap to responders
Provides accurate and realistic scenario
Can be coupled with HAZUS loss estimates
Available for exercises
Its a free service of CISN Outreach
Advantages in Using ShakeMap/Loss EstimationScenario portrays accurate magnitude and ground motion parameters
Map is closely coordinated with loss estimation methodology
Makes sense to use same technologies for exercise as for actual event
Technologies will be better integrated with procedures and protocols

Current and Planned Outreach ActivitiesWebsite: www.cisn.org
Hazard Awareness Web Portal
Hazard Mitigation Awareness Map
CISN.org as an Outreach ToolThe 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 (Need more direct route to CISN Display registration)
Is a vehicle for product and outreach performance evaluation Features My CISN giving users the opportunity to customize the website to maximize its utility

Current and Planned Outreach ActivitiesNear Real-Time Strong Motion Information
Rapidly Available Strong Motion InformationCGS administers CSMIP with over 1000 stations, 700 ground response, 180 in buildings, 25 dams and 70 bridges
Online access to 22 station geotechnical array
Real-Time telemetry for strong motion instruments is a recent development and ongoing
Essential for a robust ShakeMap
Near real-time information from instrumented buildings basis for rapid damage assessment
CGS has developed a building motion animation/visualization soon to be available
Engineering community can learn much about damage from strong motion data (e.g. improve building codes, earthquake resistant design)
CSMIP Seminars
Internet Quick Reports
National Center for Engineering Strong Motion data
Current and Planned Outreach ActivitiesPresentations, Materials, Electronic Media and Expos
MaterialsDeveloped and distributed brochure for CISN at workshops, lectures, conferences and expos
CGS has completed a new brochure on use of information from CSMIP
Still debating how best to promote use of ShakeMap for news reporting of EQs
ATC 54 Guidelines are now available
CISN has been the subject of many posters displayed at professional meetings/conferences
PresentationsOES lectures at CSTI in the Earthquake Course
Tsunami Planning Workshops have provided opportunity to promote use of CISN Display
USGS public lecture series, news interviews, many other forums
CGS Strong Motion Utilization Seminars
Caltech Earthquake Research Affiliates, info on southern CA EQs
UC Berkeley participation in many conferences, info on northern CA EQs
Electronic MediaPaged earthquake information from CISN
ShakeMap shapefiles for GIS applications
ShakeCast translation of ground motion to damage estimates
Linkage of real-time earthquake information and HAZUS loss estimation
Web-based and web-enabled data through CISN Display and websites
Expos, Exercises and Public EventsAll CISN affiliated organizations participate
CGS has make-a-quake demonstration
Displays that feature CISN products
Posters at meeting attended by various target audiences
Hayward and Southern San Andreas commemorative activities
Some Promising New ProductsNetQuakeDeployment of inexpensive strong motion instruments hosted by members of the public
PAGERStands for Prompt Assessment of Global Earthquakes for Response. Provides population exposure by intensity of ground shaking
IQR Interactive mapAllows users to view strong motion stations and data using Google Map features
OES Hazard Mitigation Awareness MapUsers may enter address and learn about local hazards as well as strategies for hazard reduction
Some Possible Next StepsShould carry out some upgrades to CISN.orgShould conduct a survey to assess user satisfaction with CISN Display
Take advantage of commemorative activities to promote products
Refocus the strategy for transfer of CISN Display (survey could help)
