1 Use of ShakeMap in Emergency Management Loren Turner Caltrans, Division of Research & Innovation

2 EQ Products Used at Caltrans Caltrans responders rely on suite of tools to assist in post-earthquake response:  ShakeMap provides the basis for downstream response systems. ShakeCast for bridge inspection prioritization. CISN Display for notification at operations centers.  Earthquake Notification System (ENS) for email alerts of events.

3 California Integrated Seismic Network (CISN) 1900 instruments deployed statewide CISN communications backbone consists of five T1 links

4 1994 Northridge Earthquake (Magnitude 6.7)

5 CISN Display for Caltrans

6 CISN Display Usage at Caltrans in 24/7 Operations Traffic Management Centers  Districts 1, 2, 4, 6, 7, 8, 10, 11, 12 Emergency Operation Centers  Districts 4, 12 Structures Maintenance  Los Angeles and Sacramento Offices

7 ShakeCast Suite of web server software Retrieves measured shaking data within minutes after an earthquake Compares shaking distribution with unique bridge vulnerabilities Provides hierarchical lists and maps of bridges most likely impacted Emails info to responders within 10 to 15 minutes following event Provides suite of tools on ShakeCast website

8 Foundation for ShakeCast Geology Engineering Judgment Faults Strong Motion Data Vulnerability Modeling Caltrans Bridge Data ShakeMap Bridge Fragility ShakeCast

9 5.4 Chino Hills July 2008 ShakeCast identified the only bridge damaged in this event as the 3 rd highest priority for inspection.

10 7.2 Calexico April 2010 ShakeCast identified the only bridge damaged in this event as the top priority for inspection.
