NEESit File Hierarchy
• NEEScentral provides a web-interface into metadata model
• High-level model based on existing data and practices from equipment sites
• Hierarchical model with metadata values added to individual directory level nodes

NEES Tsunami Reconnaissance Data Repository
• Partnership:• UCSD:
• SDSC (San Diego Supercomputer Center)• NEESit
• Oregon State University• Harry Yeh
• Project includes four primary elements 1. Data/Metadata Structure: Working with the reconnaissance teams to
ensure adequate metadata to facilitate reuse and queries of the data 2. Storage: Formal storage strategy to ensure its long-term reliability,3. Curation: Data librarian and curation effort to review and validate the
metadata and data entering the repository, 4. Query: Query and browsing interfaces to allow easy downloads of
the data

Initial Efforts
• Creating Data Upload Environment • Preliminary metadata structure • File hierarchy for upload
• Query/Browsing Environment• Google Maps (maps.google.com) as catalog browser (all data geo-
referenced)• Evaluating Visualization tools (Geoplayer/GeoFusion)• Inclusion of before/after remote sensing data
• Coordination with NSF SBE Recon Teams• EERI Recon Teams
• Telecon being planned with experts to inform metadata structure• Work with teams to upload data

Metadata for Multimedia Files
• All field data geo-referenced• EERI recommended metadata for recon image(s)
• File name, date and image description• Lat/Long (in decimal degree format) or street address if
lat/long information is not available.• Photographer Orientation.• Researcher’s contact information.
• Simlar for video, scanned paper clippings…• Surveys/interviews also to be geo-referenced

Future Directions
• Working with other national and international groups/organizations
• Enhancement and extension of metadata• Extension to other earthquake events• Enhancement of user interface/query
environment• Integration with other data resources (NEES,,
remote sensing, ?)

Factors affecting behavioral response to natural warning signs of tsunami.
Social: human behavioral responses by conducting interviews.
Short-lived social data from people in affected areas to understand human behavioral response
Andaman coast of Thailand
Bruce Houghton:
Physical and Social Infrastructure Impacts and Interdependencies in Southern Thailand
Social: aggreagate of social, political, economic and demographic characteristics via interviews, archives, tourism literature, media reports.
Data, regarding recovery of coastal S.Thailand, to be used in models that test hypothesis of coupling between physical and social systems, in particular how it relates to tourism.
