Abstract

Tsunami! (http://www.geophys.washington.edu/tsunami/welcome.html) is a WWW site developed at the University of Washington with collaborative support from the global tsunami research community. The site originated as an on-line documentation of the 1994 East Java tsunami survey. The field survey documentation was developed to serve as a prototypical WWW resource whose form can be amended and improved upon for future on-line tsunami survey documentation. Educational and hazard mitigation resources were added to the site to provide the general public with an on-line source of tsunami information. The site's content and interface design were strongly influenced by the wide range of network connections and browser applications utilized by the target audience.
