Title No Misunderstandings During Earthquakes: Elaborating and Testing a Standardized Tweet Structure for Automatic Earthquake Detection Information Type Conference Article
Year 2015 Publication ISCRAM 2015 Conference Proceedings ? 12th International Conference on Information Systems for Crisis Response and Management Abbreviated Journal ISCRAM 2015
Volume Issue Pages
Keywords Automatic detection; earthquakes; tweet comprehension; tweet syntax; Twitter
Abstract Social media have proven to be useful resources for spreading verified information during natural disasters. Nevertheless, little attention has hitherto been devoted to the peculiarities of constructing effective tweets (and tweet formats), or to common users? comprehension of tweets conveying scientific information. In this paper, social scientists and seismologists collaborated in order to elaborate and test a standardized tweet structure to be used during earthquakes, expanding on the results of a quali-quantitative research project. The tweet format is specifically designed to launch an innovative information service by Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia (INGV): tweeting the automatic detection of earthquakes with a magnitude greater than 3. This paper illustrates the steps of the research process that led to elaborating a tweet format that will be used in the next few months by the official Twitter account @INGVterremoti.

Title #geiger 2: Developing Guidelines for Radiation Measurements Sharing on Social Media Type Conference Article
Year 2016 Publication ISCRAM 2016 Conference Proceedings ? 13th International Conference on Information Systems for Crisis Response and Management Abbreviated Journal ISCRAM 2016
Volume Issue Pages
Keywords Twitter; Nuclear Post-Accident; Radiation; Robots; Syntax
Abstract Radiation measurements are key information in post-nuclear accident situations. Automated Twitter accounts have been used to share the readings, but often in an incomplete way from the perspective of data sharing and risk communication between citizen and radiation experts. In this paper, we investigate the requirements for radiation measurements completeness, by analyzing the perceived usefulness of several metadata items that may go along the measurement itself. We carried out a benchmark of existing uses, and conducted a survey with both experts and lay citizens. We thus produced a set of guidelines regarding the metadata that should be used, and the way to publish it.
