A Wireless Sensor Network for Seismic Activity Registration

The scientific requirements for reliable data collection and precision event detection are the main features of the geophysical monitoring. The main contribution of this paper is an evaluation of the Wireless Sensor Network as a scientific instrument, bringing it up to the standards of existing instrumentation in terms of the quality and accuracy of the recorded signals and quantity of the captured data. We perform a detailed study of the sensor network's data using a direct comparison to a standalone data logger, as well as an investigation of seismic and acoustic wave data pass through the the network.
