GEOFON
The GEOFON program consists of a global seismic network (GE Network), a seismological data centre (GEOFON DC) and a global earthquake monitoring system (GEOFON EQinfo). These three pillars are part of the MESI research infrastructure of the GFZ Helmholtz Centre for Geosciences aiming at facilitating scientific research. GEOFON provides real-time seismic data, access to its own and third party data from the archive facilities as well as global and rapid earthquake information. The GEOFON Seismological Software can be considered the fourth module of the GEOFON Program. Among the Seismological Software we provide to the community there is the SeisComP3 package that we use for all our operations. Data, services, products and software openly distributed by GEOFON are used by hundreds of users and data centres worldwide.
GE Seismic Network - GEOFON Global Seismic Network
In 2018 the GEOFON global seismic network consists of more than 80 active high quality stations with real-time acquisition. The network plays a leading role in global real-time seismology providing valuable data for almost all fundamental and applie…
GEOFON Eqinfo - GEOFON Global Earthquake Monitoring System
All real time data streams from GEOFON stations as well as around 900 additional real-time stations from international partners are used to determine rapid automatic location estimates for all globally recorded earthquakes and most regional ones. Th…
