"Poseidon Class" Envirtech tsunameter DS2, built for the indian National Institute of Ocean Technology, has been successfully deployed on a 3373 meters depth seafloor.  Soon the DS2 started to transmit, via acoustic modem,  telemetry and sea levels data collected by the very high precision pressure transducer and elaborated by the ARM CPU.
At present  Envirtech "Poseidon Class" Tsunameters are the most reliable devices in the world  able to measure and assess the real occurrence of tsunami waves. More on Envirtech Tsunameters, Previous campaign.

Tsunami Warning System

We designed effective, high reliability Tsunami Warning System starting registered tsunami after the eruption in Stromboli in December 2002 (our TWS presentation for United Nation, ESCAP, Bangkok  Pdf 6.7 Mb).

Envirtech "Vulcan Class" realtime seafloor observatory equipped with wide spectrum seismometer and Hydrophone

Our system  has been based on multisensor (both seismic wide spectrum, and pressure gauges) deep ocean platforms.  Sea bottom acquired data is relayed via surface buoys to a Control Center, using Inmarsat mini-C Transceivers on board the buoys - Tsunami Alert/Alarm bulletins are dispatched via Inmarsat EGC Fleetnet, SafetyNET, NavTEX, GSM/GPRS, Fax, voice and Internet.   (Data Sheet)

We provide engineering,

projects, systems, ideas, information,  software   and solutions for global environmental problems. We are a global technological partner
able to  assist large companies and Governments to develop the best environment oriented solutions.

Envirtech "Poseidon Class" real time seafloor observatory

Real Time updated,  rain gauge and temperature from    Sicilian  weather stations  managed by us at sicilia.envirtech.it 

We   build,  deploy and maintain

data acquisition networks on land, sea surface and  sea bottom. We are able to implement   radio links and  Satellite  communication networks as well as undersea acoustic communications and VLF. 

We encourage people to live protecting 
Earth’s environment for current and future generations.
