SeisComP3 supporting NASA’s InSight mission on planet Mars

Nov 26, 2018  ·   Projects

NASA’s InSight mission successfully landed on the Elysium plain today will bring modern seismology to planet Mars and SeisComP3 is part of this enterprise. In collaboration with ETH Zurich , Switzerland, we have developed a comprehensive graphical user interface (GUI) based on SeisComP3 to assist the earthquake monitoring. The GUI will be used by the Marsquake Service, an InSight project team led by ETH Zurich , Switzerland, to identify signals from earthquakes or meteoroid impacts, to locate the sources based on just one 3-component instrument and to identify signals worth downloading at high sample rates. Using just one seismometer in this harsh environment poses a great challenge to hardware and software engineers and seismologists.

SeisComP3 for monitoring seismicity on Korean penninsula

May 2, 2017  ·   Projects

SeisComP3 has been used by KIGAM, South Korea , to monitor the seismicity on the Korean Penninsula. Using SeisComP3 and our products local earthquake monitoring KIGAM has been successfully recorded and analyzed the large earthquake in September, 2016. We have recently intensified our collaboration with KIGAM and presented our latest developments at KIGAM.

Monitoring earthquakes at gas storages in Italy

Nov 25, 2016  ·   Projects

Seiscomp3 and gempa modules will be used by OGS to monitor the seismicty in north-east Italy. The monitoring targets include sites where gas is stored in depleted natural reservoirs. We have trained OGS staff members to use SeisComP3 and the gempa modules for observing and analyzing the earthquakes including their moment tensors.

TOAST Upgrade and Moment Tensor Modules for Tsunami-Early Warning at BMKG, Indonesia

Jul 26, 2016  ·   Projects

At BMKG in Jakarta, Indonesia , we have upgraded SeisComP3 and TOAST to the latest release and installed the modules MTV and AUTOMT for determination of earthquake moment-tensors. gempa GmbH has been supporting BMKG to establish and to increase capacities for earthquake and tsunami early warning for Indonesia and the Indian Ocean. The new software modules will enhance the capabilities at BMKG to monitor earthquakes in Indonesia and the oceans around. Hands-on training at BMKG for new moment tensor modules will enable the operators to rapidly determine the source mechanism of earthquakes that are required input parameters for tsunami modeling and early warning.
