The Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia (INGV) is in charge of earthquake monitoring and surveillance in the Italian territory as a part of the civil protection system. Technological improvements in the last years were taken into account for developing new protocols and software to upgrade all the procedures in the monitoring centers. Real‐time earthquake evaluation consists of phase picks, preliminary and automatic hypocenters, local magnitudes and ground‐motion parameters. The real‐time analysis system presently in use at INGV is the starting point for a new multitier compound system that relies on four main components: an automatic earthquake detection and location system based on Earthworm; a new seismological relational database for parametric data; a full set of new webservices application programming interface specifications to share information and provide data at the application level and; finally, a set of multiplatform interactive revision tools developed to analyze, store, use, and distribute the seismic parameters in real time. These last three components are being completely developed ex‐novo at INGV in Rome. Such a system has been engineered to communicate with the International Federation of Digital Seismic Networks standard webservices as well as custom home‐made INGV services.Through its custom embedded features Caravel will allow the INGV personnel on duty for seismic surveillance to evaluate and review all automatic estimations before they are communicated to the Italian civil protection agency and then published by external tools through e‐mail, SMS, Twitter, and webpages.

Caravel：意大利地震监测系统基于Earth的新开源开发

国土安全研究院（INGV）负责意大利境内的地震监测和监视，作为民防系统的一部分。在开发新的协议和软件以升级监控中心的所有程序时，已考虑到最近几年的技术改进。实时地震评估包括相移，初步和自动震源，局部震级和地震动参数。INGV目前使用的实时分析系统是新的多层复合系统的起点，该系统依赖于四个主要组件：基于Earth的自动地震检测和定位系统；一个新的用于参数数据的地震关系数据库；全套新的Web服务应用程序编程接口规范，以在应用程序级别共享信息并提供数据；以及 最后，开发了一套多平台交互式修订工具来实时分析，存储，使用和分配地震参数。这最后三个组成部分正在罗马的INGV展前进行全面开发。该系统旨在与国际数字地震网络联合会标准Web服务以及定制的INGV服务进行通信，通过其定制的嵌入式功能，Caravel将使INGV值班的地震监视人员能够自动评估和审查估算值在传达给意大利民防局之前，然后由外部工具通过电子邮件，SMS，Twitter和网页发布。
