Gps Based Safe Location Guiding Android Systems in Case of Tsunami

Abstract

Tsunami can be defined as giant waves caused by earthquakes or volcanic eruptions under the sea. Out in the depths of the ocean, tsunami waves do not dramatically increase in height. But as the waves travel inland, waves build up to higher and higher heights as the depth of the ocean decreases. It has been scientifically proved that the speed of tsunami waves depends on ocean depth rather than the distance from the gravity of the wave. This research is to establish a tsunami guidance system and to make the general public aware about such a disaster and to guide them to the nearest security sites. The major problem that has been identified in this research is the impossibility of arriving in a safe place and the lack of knowledge in case of tsunami. The probability of predicting a disaster is very unlikely, thus the resulting damage is immense. Once this scenario is taken in to consideration, this research has identified some problems. Among them, the lack of preparedness for potential tsunamis, the lack of resources and the exotic staff have no idea of reacting and getting warning signals. But one of the major issues of this research is the inability to track Tsunami alerts and arrive at a safe place in the easiest way.
