Applications

Where seismic instruments are used

GeoPlus instruments support land and marine seismic observation, temporary and permanent monitoring networks, high-density nodal deployments, OBS/OBN surveys and research-grade geophysical acquisition.

Earthquake monitoring and hazard assessment

Permanent or temporary seismic stations record ground motion, locate earthquakes and support seismic hazard assessment and event reporting.

Volcano and geothermal monitoring

Seismic networks help detect volcano-tectonic earthquakes, tremor and fluid-related signals for volcano observatories, geothermal fields and high-temperature regions.

Land nodal arrays

Compact nodal seismometers can be deployed in dense arrays for passive seismic surveys, active-source acquisition, microseismic observation and rapid field campaigns.

Structural imaging and site investigation

Wide-band sensors support shallow-to-deep imaging, site characterization, basin studies, near-surface surveys and engineering geophysics.

Offshore and transition-zone acquisition

OBS and OBN systems extend seismic observation from land into coastal, shallow-water and offshore environments where conventional land stations cannot operate.

Deep-sea geophysical observation

Ocean-bottom instruments are used for long-term seabed monitoring, plate-boundary studies, offshore earthquake research and marine geodynamic investigations.

Reservoir, storage and induced seismicity monitoring

High-sensitivity instruments can support monitoring around reservoirs, underground storage, mining, geothermal operations and other projects where induced seismicity must be evaluated.

Research, education and instrument testing

Universities, laboratories and research institutes can use documented instrument configurations for teaching, network experiments, calibration and method development.
