Broadband Network

A key part of the observatory are its seismograph networks. The multi-parameter sites form the backbone of seismological data acquisition. To cope with the high resolution and dynamic of the sensors, site installation was accomplished with special care. At most sites a cavern was blasted into the bedrock up to 5 meters deep to ensure stable conditions for measurements. The careful selection and remoteness of the sites ensures excellent data quality.

 

The following table is an overview over the sites:
