中央氣象署E vs Raining Bell

「中央氣象署E - 地震測報」APP 之目的為利用日益普遍之行動網路通訊，將地震相關資訊主動推播至接收者的手持式行動載具，期能有效縮短通報所需時程，以提供地震發生後之應變時效。主要功能如下： ＊強震即時警報：APP 收到推播之強震即時警報後，結合手機之 GPS 定位或依使用者預先設定之地區與其他相關參數，進行快速演算，發出警報聲音、文字或影像之告警提醒。 ＊顯著有感地震報告推播：APP 接收推播之地震報告後，以清楚明顯之圖文方式展示：發震時間、震央地點（經緯度）、地震規模與深度、各地震度等。 ＊海嘯資訊推播：APP 收到推播之海嘯資訊後，以清楚明顯之圖文方式展示：地震資訊、臺灣海嘯警界分區之預估海嘯波到時與預估浪高等。 ＊具備查詢歷史地震報告、全球地震、太平洋海嘯的功能，設計友善易用的介面列表彙整與圖文展示介面，並提供查詢條件設定功能，例如地區、縣市、時間、規模、震度等。 *地震活動：以3D動畫方式播放特定時段之臺灣地區地震活動，可自訂資料區間(最多三個月)、播放速度、觀看角度及遠近。藉此了解臺灣地震之時空分布與孕震構造。

“Raining Bell” integrated with “Firefly” Smart Weather Service App Raining Bell is an industry–academia collaborative project that applies real-time radar-monitoring technology to meteorological disaster- prevention services. It integrates nationwide radar observations with FORMOSAT-7 satellite data and employs data-assimilation and radar-echo extrapolation techniques to establish an early-warning system capable of predicting rainfall trends up to three hours in advance. The user interface, designed by the National Science and Technology Center for Disaster Reduction (NCDR), combines location-based services and push notifications to deliver timely, convenient weather information. The latest version incorporates the Firefly smart voice assistant powered by the TAIDE large language model (LLM). Users can interact naturally in Mandarin or Taiwanese to check weather conditions and receive proactive alerts about rainfall and potential disaster risks. By combining real-time forecasts from the Central Weather Administration (CWA) with Raining Bell’s observation data, the system provides intelligent, localized, and personalized weather services. This app was developed under the guidance of the National Science and Technology Council (NSTC) through the joint efforts of NCDR and the National Center for High-Performance Computing (NCHC). The software was produced by ThinkYes Technology Co., Ltd. By integrating AI with disaster-prevention technology, Raining Bell offers a weather service that is both real-time and human-centered. This product represents experimental research results; for official weather forecasts, please refer to announcements from the Central Weather Administration.
