The rapid determination of source parameters is hence of great importance for correctly determining shaking intensities or evaluating the strong motion distribution generated by a large earthquake. This study shows that we can automatically preprocess strong-motion data using automatic P- and S-phase pickers, determine the focal mechanism, and identify the fault plane from two nodal planes. Areal-time simulation is performed for the 2007 Noto Hanto earthquake.Using our automatic fault plane identificator, we were able to identify one of the nodal planes with a strike of 62 deg and a dip of 70 deg within a 30-s interval from the beginning of focal mechanism determination to the end of waveform inversion. Results from automatic inversions showed that the slip was confined to a shallow portion with a maximum slip of about 3 m. The total seismic moment released in 10 s was 2.0 x 10^18 N m, which corresponds to a moment magnitude of 6.8.
