Abstract
This article presents the main development components Early Earthquake Warning and Evacuation System (EEWES) for the Ranau District of Sabah. Many early earthquake warning systems have been developed since the last major earthquake in Ranau in 2015, but none has appropriately investigated the school children evacuation processes/exercises. The system was developed not just to expedite the evacuation process at these schools but also to help evacuate the school children and to get in touch with the children’s parents who are outstation. Those parents will be updated on the evacuation initiative that is taking place on a real-time basis. The system may also transfer the evacuation details to the local and federal emergency services and other agencies concerned with the evacuation exercises. The system mainly utilised the APIs released by regional disaster centres, which may deliver speedy transmission alerts. The future research direction is to incorporate the local tremor sensor details into the system.
