Abstract

The Tsunami Observer automatic system for assessment of earthquake tsunami hazard has been operating since January 25, 2018. In this report we analyze the results of the system over the past year and a half, comparison of the estimates made by the system and in situ observations data is performed. The time delay of issue of focal mechanism, which is critical to fast tsunami hazards assessment, is discussed.
