    Tsunamis can be devastating, unpredictable events that have caused over 250,000 fatalities since the beginning of the 21st century—as well as hundreds of billions of dollars in damage to property and infrastructure.

While no amount of tsunami data can prevent the disasters from occurring, collecting and storing it saves countless lives.
