NEC has been selected to provide the Philippines Institute of Volcanology and Seismology with a wide-area disaster prevention system to detect volcanic and seismic activity by using seismic intensity meters and tide indicators, as well as offering disaster countermeasures.

The system will be commencing from February 2015 aiming to provide wide range of services in terms of Disaster Management by collating sensor data from the strong-motion seismographs and tide indicators located throughout the Philippines at the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology via satellite-based communication (VSAT).

The constant monitoring of Volcanic and Seismic activity will help to provide timely information to the ministries and other agencies during earthquake.

NEC has envisioned by providing firefighting and disaster prevention measures by emphasizing "the importance of its "Solutions for Society, "that has almost covered the Japan's domestic market.

NEC'S presence has been marked by their marvelous technological service which has been acclaimed globally by recently winning accolades on an order for a cloud-based disaster and emergency information system in Taiwan.

The seismic intensity meters will be located in approximately 40 locations and tide indicators will be located in approximately 20 locations all over the Philippines, and these sensors will use photovoltaic solar cells so that they can send data constantly.
The data on oscillation and the tides will be gathered in real time, enabling the constant monitoring of volcanic and seismic activity.
