Georgia Seismic Network

Thanks to IRIS and the John C. Lahr Educational Seismology Fund, we were able to purchase 15 new low-cost seismic sensors and acquisition systems for the redevelopment of the Georgia Educational Seismic Network.

Over the next year we will be installing these instruments through an array of educational institutions across the state. Planned siting will be in Middle and High schools, Historically Black Colleges and Universities, Museums and Science Centers. We plan to balance societal and spatial impact.
