"RAMONES" Project
Rapid Assessment of MOmeNt and Energy Service

Collaboration of researchers: University of Genoa (D. Spallarossa, D. Scafidi, C. Turino) - INGV Milan (P. Morasca) - GFZ German Research Centre for Geosciences (D. Bindi) - University "Federico II" of Naples (M. Picozzi)

The service RAMONES (Rapid Assessment of MOmeNt and Energy Service) is designed, developed and maintained by the seismological group of the University of Genoa (Spallarossa et al., 2020). Among other parameters, RAMONES disseminates rapid estimates of seismic moment and radiated energy of earthquakes occurring in central Italy, using waveforms data retrieved from EIDA (European Integrated Data Archive) and the Italian Civil Protection (DPC) strong motion network. Parametric information, such as earthquake locations, are extracted from the INGV (National Institute for Geophysics and Volcanology) bulletin. The source parameters are estimated using features extracted directly from recordings, following methodologies developed through scientific collaborations with the German Research Centre for Geosciences (GFZ-Potsdam), University of Naples, and INGV, and described in Picozzi et al. (2017), Bindi et al. (2018), Spallarossa et al (2020).
