Abstract

Starting in 2005, the GITEWS project (German-Indonesian Tsunami Early Warning System) established from scratch a fully operational tsunami w arning system at BMKG in Jakarta. GITEWS was suceeded in 2011 by the smaller project PROTECTS for training the Indonesian staff and consolid ating the technical system. With the official end in March 2014, it is time to "eine bilanz ziehen". This presentation focusses on the "Beitrag" by the tsunami modelling group at the Alfred Wegener Institute. We will give a short overview on the developments of the numerical tsunami simulation model TsunAWI, of the scenario database built with TsunAWI, and of the simulation module SIM that interfaces the database to the decision support system.
