Earthquake Early Response and Impact Assessment in the Campi Flegrei area
Product Overview
The aim of this product is to provide earthquake early response and impact estimation at pilot site level, to support civil protection authorities for rapid situational awareness and preliminary assessment of potential damage.
The objective is to bridge the temporal gap between an earthquake detection on a seismic station and the availability of fully processed shake-maps tools
Within 1 to 3 seconds since the first P-wave earthquake detection, the product determines the moment magnitude and potential impact/strong shaking (peak ground motion and macro seismic Intensity IMCS) in the area surrounding the seismic station. The information is sent to users through automatic emails, while the link to an onsite Early Warning specific smartphone app is under development.

Expected shaking intensity and extent of the affected area around the pilot site for the Md 3.3 earthquake that occurred on 1 September 2025.
Expected shaking intensity and extent of the affected area around the pilot site for the Md 2.7 earthquake that occurred on 2 October 2025.
Available Implementations
A first implementation supports earthquake early response at Pozzuoli (Italy) pilot site, by providing - within seconds since earthquake occurrence - a rapid estimate of the expected earthquake magnitude and the expected damage within an area surrounding the target where the product is available.
