SUMMARY:Seconds Matter: Earthquake Early Warning
DESCRIPTION:Seconds Matter: How Valcom’s Earthquake Early Warning System Enhances Facility Safety\nJoin Valcom and Dr. Robert de Groot from the U.S. Geological Survey for a closer look at Earthquake Early Warning (EEW) technology. Learn how Valcom’s on-site alerting systems\, powered by USGS ShakeAlert®\, detect earthquakes and send alerts through speakers\, strobes\, LED signs\, and desktop notifications. These systems help people act before the shaking begins. \nDr. De Groot will explain how earthquake detection works and share real-world examples from California\, Oregon\, and Washington. He’ll also introduce free USGS resources for schools. These materials help administrators\, teachers\, and students prepare for earthquakes using age-appropriate lessons. Discover how combining technology and education can enhance safety and readiness within your district and community. \nValcom’s Sales Engineer\, Dan Dalton\, will guide attendees through an overview of Valcom’s Earthquake Early Warning Systems\, known as VEEWS\, as well as the available materials and training. \nPresenter Bio: \nDr. Robert de Groot is the operations team lead for communication\, education\, outreach\, and technical engagement for the USGS-managed ShakeAlert Earthquake Early Warning System which serves over 50 million people in California\, Oregon\, and Washington. Before he joined USGS in 2016\, he spent 17 years as the director of education and experiential learning at the Southern California Earthquake Center. Robert holds a Ph.D. in science education from the University of Southern California. In 2015 he was named a Fellow of the American Chemical Society. \nTo register\, click the button below. \n \n
