About Indian Ocean Tsunami Alerter
Receive instant Tsunami alerts for Indian Ocean on your Android
This app relies on Tsunami Alerts from INCOIS (A Indian Government organization).
Though there are many alerts issues by INCOIS.This would only relay alerts for Earthquakes of magnitude greater than 6 as only those earthquakes are capable of generating a strong Tsunami.
This caters to West & East Coasts of India, though there has been no Tsunami on the Southern side of Indian Ocean, chance of one occuring can be never ruled out as there is a fault line that runs from Madgascar right up to Maldives and ends in Arabian Ocean!
There are two fault lines running in IndianOcean, one is near Indonesia-Sumatara and another is near Maldives region which reaches upto Gulf/Saudi Arabia.Though there is have been no earthquakes, there is chance of one occuring and generating a powerful Tsunami can be never ruled in South IndianOcean
Notifications would be accompanied by Alarm/Ringtone based on the magnitude of earthquake and night hours!
This app caters to the countries that are listed below
India,SriLanka & Bangladesh,Pakistan

location: Penang, Malaysia. UTC 0838 Northern sumatra earthquake. we evacuated after we found the building is shaking. I tried to get the latest info from pacific disaster center (PDC) but it shown nothing happen. About 20 minutes later, this app generated a tsunami alert (a short period vibration alert). I checked again PDC, yes, that was an earthquake in north Sumatra and PDC just released Tsunami alert (watch).
