Near Future RT seismic stations for the CTWS

There will still be gaps in RT seismic coverage from Cuba (communications), Colombia (no available stations), Haiti (PRSN working with the OAS for 1 or 2 stations), Venezuela (MOU required) and UNAM, Mexico (limited contact/participation in CTWS).

DI-02-06Facilitate improvement of capabilities for global seismographic networks such as GSN, FDSN, DAPHNE, GNSS networks and new ocean bottom networks such as VENUS

and NEPTUNE and sharing of data and event products among GEO members

• 1. Sustain GSN/FDSN operations and maintenance.• 2. Expand real-time telemetry capabilities and robustness for the GSN/FDSN stations.• 3. Improve operational uptime and data availability of GSN/FDSN.• 4. Promote real time access and use of data from GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite

Systems) permanent stations• 5. Advocate free, open access to real-time seismic data from GEOSS in-situ

Observation Systems and facilitate data sharing among GEOSS members.• 6. Facilitate and improve the use of seismological data to obtain rapid estimates of

event parameters suitable to mitigate the consequences of the event.• 7. Facilitate data management coordination within GEOSS for seismological data,

metadata, and products.• 8. Establish GEOSS 6-year target to develop new very-broad seismometers for

seismology and tsunami warning.• 9. Advocate and coordinate use of GSN/FDSN as a logical framework for other

GEOSS in-situ measurements.• 10. Establish GEOSS 10-year target to extend global seismological coverage into the

oceans through synergy and shared logistical infrastructure with GEOSS in-situ ocean observing systems.
