TREM-net
The TREM seismic network, built across Taiwan since 2022. Seismometers we designed record three-axis ground motion. Each station’s seismic intensity updates every second. See the TREM-net seismic network.
About
ExpTech Studio is a team of people with different specialties. It focuses on real-time earthquake monitoring in Taiwan. It relays the CWA Earthquake Early Warning (CWA EEW) from the Central Weather Administration (CWA), and uses earthquake data and visualization to provide data services. These docs explain how to get that data through the ExpTech API.
What we offer
Section titled “What we offer”Earthquake early warning
Apps such as DPIP relay the CWA EEW, issued by the Central Weather Administration, to all users. The CWA requires that its warning data be read with professional understanding, so it is available only under a separate contract, and these docs do not cover integrating it. Separately, our TREM system computes its own TREM EEW from TREM-net observations. TREM EEW is not official information. Under the Meteorological Act, it is provided only to specific users who have ExpTech’s individual approval or a contract, and is not issued to the general public. Information published by the CWA always prevails.
ExpTech API
Serves earthquake reports, real-time station data, weather, map tiles, and disaster information over HTTP APIs and SSE real-time streams.
Apps and devices
Official software such as DPIP and TREM-Lite, and the ES series seismometers. See Supported software and Product docs.

Section titled “Start here”Quick startCall your first API, create an API Token, and open a real-time stream.
Usage rulesCredit the source, use data according to its class, and the requirements when you relay data or build a third-party service.
Servers and Base URLAPI server groups, how the nodes differ, and how to fail over.
Architecture and geo-redundancyReal-time earthquake data is processed in Tainan and in Tokyo. If one site stops, the other keeps serving.
