New Zealand Android users getting trial Google earthquake alerts

Through this system, we hope to provide people with the advance notice they need to stay safe. The Android Earthquake Alerts System is being rolled out in Aotearoa and Greece, having only been previously available in parts of the US. GeoNet, a partnership between the Earthquake Commission, GNS Science and Land Information New Zealand, reports between 50 and 80 earthquakes a day, or around 20,000 per year in New Zealand. A report on Stuff says the system will be triggered by quakes of magnitude of 4.5 or greater and in more dangerous quakes will alert users even when the phone is switched off. The system is separate to the National Emergency Management Agency system which has alerted Kiwis to COVID-19 lockdowns as well as tsunamis and earthquakes through their mobile phones.

Google launches Android Earthquake Alerts System in Greece and New Zealand

Google launches Android Earthquake Alerts System in Greece and New Zealand While we would all like to think the ground beneath us is stationary, the truth is, this giant sphere we call Earth is constantly moving. Not only is our planet simultaneously rotating and moving around the sun, but sometimes the ground can shake and rumble more than we d like too. This can happen when the tectonic plates move about too much. This friction is what we call an earthquake. We call it this because a layer of earth beneath us quite literally quakes. These earthquakes aren t just scary they can be deadly too. Yes, people can be injured during these seismic events, including death. Earthquakes can even cause tsunamis, leading to drownings too. This is why it is so important to alert people when earthquakes happen. Thankfully, if you own an Android phone and live in either Greece or New Zealand, I have some good news Google is launching an earthquake alerts system in those two countries.

Kiwi Android phones turned into earthquake detectors

Kiwi Android phones turned into earthquake detectors Newshub 29/04/2021 © Google / Newshub. New Zealand is among the first countries in the world to get access to technology that turns Android smartphones into a network of earthquake detectors. The Google trial will have phones detect seismic waves that indicate an earthquake may be happening using their built-in accelerometers and send a signal, including a rough location, to a central server. The server then uses other phones to figure out if an earthquake is actually happening, where it is and its magnitude. Android users will receive automatic early warning alerts when there is an earthquake in their area, wrote Boone Spooner, an Android Product Manager, in a company blog post.
