Abstract

Modern seismic networks have grown to become increasingly complex infrastructures, composed of hundreds of devices and data streams scattered over wide geographic regions. Among the components of such networks are heterogeneous seismic and environmental sensors, digitizers, data loggers, data collection servers, wired and wireless communication hardware, and other devices and software subsystems charged with different data handling tasks, such as continuous data storage or analysis. In order to be effectively managed, a seismic network therefore needs a tiered software application. This application
encompasses tasks that range from the low-level (hardware monitoring for failure detection) to the mid-level (data quality control) to the high-level (managing the final output of the network: recorded events, waveforms, and parametric data). At the same time such an application should provide a centralized and easy-to-use graphical user interface (GUI).
