Advanced monitoring and control meter helps our country's earthquake monitoring and prediction ability continuously improved

In May 12th, China ushered in the Ninth National Disaster Prevention and reduction day. 9 years ago today, the Sichuan earthquake happened in Wenchuan, this disaster has become all Chinese to heart pain. In 2009, the Wenchuan earthquake of 1st anniversary, the State Council will this day as the national day of disaster prevention and mitigation, to commemorate the victims of the earthquake in Wenchuan, also shows us, don't forget, alarm bells ringing.
 
　　Earthquakes are human beings can not avoid natural disasters, but the use of high-tech seismic monitoring instruments and meters, can predict the disaster ahead of schedule, so as to effectively reduce the loss of disaster. In recent years, China has invested a lot of manpower, material resources and financial resources in the field of earthquake prediction, and has achieved many valuable scientific research achievements, and obtained a number of major breakthroughs in measuring and controlling instruments. 
　　In June 2015, the "12th Five-Year" National Science and technology support program "the disaster of earthquake risk assessment and quick access to research key technology acceptance by experts, the project has made important progress in earthquake risk assessment, emergency mapping and aerial remote sensing data acquisition and fast processing, earthquake disaster and emergency decision service etc.. 
　　In August 2016, China overseas talent development foundation of catastrophe disaster chain prediction center expert team successfully developed the world's leading instrument, to improve the relevance, the earthquake has made innovative achievements, the formation mechanism of observation instruments, prediction theory and methods, especially in the strong earthquake short impending prediction has made a breakthrough, patent achievements the accuracy and scientificity in practice has been repeatedly confirmed, the earthquake in the world in recent years has achieved relatively accurate prediction. 
　　At the same time, a number of provinces and cities nationwide are being introduced "earthquake disaster mitigation plan" "13th Five-Year". In December 2016, Jiangxi Province issued a "13th Five-Year" earthquake disaster mitigation plan "," plan "," 13th Five-Year "period, Jiangxi province will build the first national earthquake monitoring radon observation instrument verification and detection of public information platform, seismic coverage will reach 80%, earthquake disaster mitigation science popularization rate will reach 80%. In May 10, 2017, the release of "Hunan earthquake disaster mitigation" 13th Five-Year "plan", "planning" pointed out: by 2020, the earthquake monitoring capacity of the province reached 2, the earthquake monitoring capacity of ring Xiangtan area reached 1.8. 
　　By the end of 12th Five-Year, China has built more than 3100 seismic monitoring stations, with a total length of tens of thousands of kilometers of mobile observation lines, forming a nationwide seismic observation network. At present, major projects in China during the "13th Five-Year" - the national seismic intensity rapid reporting and early warning project has entered the stage of preliminary design, is expected to start before the end of 2017 "". 
　　To achieve this goal, the national seismic intensity rapid reporting and early warning project need in the future to invest 1 billion 850 million yuan in the construction of 1960 configuration seismograph and macroseismograph base station, 3309 stations, the basic configuration of macroseismograph 10241 configuration Intensity Instrument General station. In the key areas including North China, North South seismic belt, southeast coastal seismic belt and Xinjiang Tianshan seismic belt, the average distance between the three stations is 12.5 km. 
　　According to the plan, the national seismic intensity rapid reporting and instrument will take about 5 years to complete the construction, when the devastating earthquake, China will provide second level earthquake early warning information service.
