Notice of Intent: Seismic Network Operations Cooperative Agreement
Notice of Intent to award a cooperative agreement to the University of Oregon pursuant to the Advanced National Seismic System (ANSS)and the project entitled "Seismic Network Operations Cooperative Agreement".
The main objectives of the agreement in support the Pacific Northwest Seismic
Netw are:
operation and maintenance of seismic stations and associated station metadata that meet ANSS standards, ensuring delivery of station waveform data and accurate station metadata to other ANSS networks and ANSS designated archives, adhering to the implementation of ANSS approved software standards to ensure efficient flow of data and information for robust delivery of ANSS products and services and interoperability, producing authoritative catalogs of earthquake source parameters and other ANSS products and services that meet ANSS standards, contributing to the operation and development of the Station Information System (SIS), working with ANSS and the ANSS National Implementation Committee (NIC) toward using or populating SIS for station inventory control and description and maintenance of station metadata and coordinating seismic monitoring activities with ANSS management and ANSS participants.
The University of Oregon is uniquely qualified to carry out the objectives above as they are the co-operators (with University of Washington) of the PNSN, a USGS-supported seismic network in the Pacific Nothwest, which is a region of significant seismic hazard posed by the offshore Cascadia subduction zone.
University of Oregon also has a well-developed network staff that is also of great benefit to this proposed study.
The PIs have been extensively involved with this effort as the seismic network operators.
In addition, specialized equipment is needed for monitoring and has been deployed by the University of Oregon in the regions of monitoring.
Some of the field sensors and central recording and computing equipment is university-owned and would not be available to another source.
Furthermore, data from the instruments is transmitted to the universities’ facilities and relocation of the data receiving point and telemetry equipment would be costly and time-consuming.
