**Overview** - **Purpose:** To streamline the situation reporting process during earthquakes - **Category:** IoT Earthquake Observation Service - **Related Products:** IoT Earthquake Observation Service - **Scope of Provision:** Complete set of equipment, implementation support, operational support, service provision **Background and Challenges** JFE Steel Corporation's East Japan Works (Chiba Area) covers an area of approximately 7.65 million m² (equivalent to about 165 Tokyo Domes) and employs around 11,000 people, including group and partner companies. In the Chiba area, multiple seismometers were installed throughout the factory to implement initial response measures as defined for each seismic intensity. However, traditional seismometers required manual data verification on-site, resulting in a reporting time of about 20 minutes. **Effects After Implementation** The verification of earthquakes on-site and the email reporting process have been automated, leading to improved operational efficiency. In particular, the time required for internal situation reporting has been reduced, enabling immediate responses to damage assessments, operational adjustments, and requests for support to other areas. Additionally, employees who were previously involved in this task can now focus on other responses immediately after an earthquake occurs.

【Overview】 ■Purpose: Understanding the damage situation of logistics bases nationwide and strengthening initial response ■Related Product: IoT Earthquake Observation Service ■Scope of Provision: Complete set of equipment, implementation support, operational support, service provision 【Background and Challenges】 Many of the products handled by Trusco Nakayama are used for disaster prevention. In the past, even when a certain region was affected by a disaster, a backup system was established at bases in other regions. However, since earthquakes can occur anywhere in the country and the impact of a major earthquake can be significant, countermeasures are essential. 【Implementation Effects】 - Previously, damage investigations and various response decisions were based on seismic intensity information from the Japan Meteorological Agency. After implementation, it became possible to conduct pre-estimations of damage based on accurate seismic intensity information for the target buildings, allowing for assumptions about access and the number of personnel and time required for damage investigations. - The ability to observe seismic intensity information in real-time 24 hours a day made it easier to imagine the damage situation even from a distance, facilitating initial response efforts.

**Overview** ■Purpose: Earthquake Observation ■Category: Measurement Equipment ■Related Products: Measurement Units for Earthquake and Volcano Observation ■Scope of Provision: System Design, Complete Equipment Set, Installation and Adjustment **Background and Issues** At the Railway Technical Research Institute, during the main shock of the Kumamoto Earthquake in 2016, non-linear ground behavior was confirmed in the northern part of the Kumamoto Plain. The customer decided to conduct temporary earthquake observations at two locations, one in an urban area and the other in a mountainous area, to investigate detailed ground amplification characteristics. There were conditions that required the use of a high dynamic range seismometer, a local recording method, and the inability to secure commercial power supply at the mountainous observation site. **Provided System** For the underground and surface seismometers, we provided high dynamic range digital output servo accelerometers. At the urban observation point, a seismometer was also installed underground (borehole approximately 40m) for the continued investigation of ground amplification characteristics. At the mountainous observation point, where commercial power was not available, a solar-powered system was implemented. In addition to a controller to manage the seismometer, we provided a recording device that allows for easy data retrieval through external SSD exchange. This setup contributed to achieving high-speed sampling (1000Hz) while enhancing operational efficiency, despite being a local recording method.
