Hi all, I agreed to look into both creating a sample tsunami CAP message and locating a foreign CAP message. I located the attached 20160302223139.xml from InaTEWS, the Indonesia Tsunami Early Warning System, which might serve as both. It has 4 info blocks, one for tsunami warning and another for tsunami advisory, and each is repeated in Indonesian and English. I'm not sure if having more than 1 plus repeats in other languages is ideal, but please check it out. Also, here is a link to the National Tsunami Warning Center's CAP initiative, with sample CAP messages: http://wcatwc.arh.noaa.gov/?page=cap This also can have multiple info blocks in the same language. Both have their own profiles. Talk to you tomorrow, David DAVID ASKOV PACIFIC DISASTER CENTER 808.891.7937 [email protected]
