Synthesis
from AIEPOS Seismology is a European initiative aimed at unifying and enhancing seismological research infrastructure. It integrates existing services like ORFEUS (waveforms), EMSC (products), and EFEHR (hazard and risk) into a sustainable, interoperable framework. The project emphasizes community governance, ensuring representation from national institutions while respecting their roles as data owners.
Services span waveform access, earthquake information, seismic hazard models, and computational tools for 3D waveform modeling. A key use case demonstrates how these services collaborate to calculate ground-motion fields for seismic hazard assessments. EPOS Seismology prioritizes user needs, leveraging advanced ICT solutions for seamless access and cross-domain integration.
