Join the 2010 ShakeOut Day for a "table-top exercise" (TTX) to improve scientific coordination for earthquake response. The goal of the TTX is to increase the chance of obtaining crucial data to help resolve important questions in earthquake science. We plan to review how field scientific reconnaissance information will flow, the "essential elements of information" required by emergency management, and how that information will be distilled and passed along as appropriate through our system. The idea is that our scientific coordination TTX will be complementary to the emergency preparedness and other public outreach activities, planned and exercised by others on ShakeOut day this year.
