GUARDIAN: AI-Powered Tsunami Early Warning System

NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory has developed GUARDIAN, an AI-powered system that uses data from over 350 continuously operating GNSS ground stations worldwide to provide early warnings for tsunamis. By identifying atmospheric distortions caused by tsunamis, GUARDIAN can, in ideal scenarios, give coastal communities up to 1 hour and 20 minutes of warning time, saving lives and property. GUARDIAN's advantage lies in its ability to detect tsunamis regardless of their cause, alerting authorities to dangerous waves generated by earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, landslides, or other events.
