As the distribution of seismic data becomes simpler and more widespread, the International Federation of Digital Seismographic Networks (FDSN) is developing a mechanism whereby people requesting and receiving data from a given network are periodically reminded of the network from which their data originated. In this manner, proper attribution can be given to the operating networks in scientific articles or reports.
The FDSN is compiling a set of citations that the various networks would like to have referenced whenever data from their network is used.

The network was installed in spring of 2010 and is seamlessly integrated with the regional and national seismic networks. The ASN is operated and maintained in cooperation with the Arkansas Geological Survey (AGS), Center for Earthquake Research and Information (CERI) at the University of Memphis and Arkansas State Parks (ASP).

Dhaka University Earth Observatory (DUEO) was established in 2003 under joint research program between Geology Department of Dhaka University, Bangladesh and Lamont Doherty Earth Observatory (LDEO) of Columbia University at New York, USA. DUEO is a consortium formed in co-operation with Rajshahi University, Khulna University, Chittagong University, Chittagong University of Engineering and Technology (CUET), Patuakhali Science and Technology University (PSTU), Shajalal University of Science and Technology (SUST).
DUEO operates network of 6 permanent seismic stations, 6 portable seismographs and 18 continuous geodetic GPS stations in the country. The objectives of the Observatory is to carryout research on crustal dynamics, plate motions and to monitor the seismic activity in Bangladesh and surrounding countries, as well as to disseminate information of earthquakes to the government and the public. Data is open to scientific community.

NCEDC / Northern California Earthquake Data Center
UC Berkeley Seismological Laboratory, Berkeley, California
The Northern California Earthquake Data Center (NCEDC) is a permanent archive and distribution center primarily for geophysical data relating to earthquakes in central and northern California. The NCEDC also provides support for earthquake processing and archiving activities of the Northern California Earthquake Management Center (NCEMC), a component of the California Integrated Seismic Network (CISN). Located at the Berkeley Seismological Laboratory, the NCEDC is operated by the Berkeley Seismological Laboratory with support from the USGS.
If you use data from the NCEDC, we ask that you acknowledge the data center and the organizations that contributed the data by including the following citation, substituting in the contributing organization in the second sentence: “Waveform data, metadata, or data products for this study were accessed through the Northern California Earthquake Data Center. [Contributing organization] contributed this data to the NCEDC.” A table of contributing organizations can be found at the following URL: http://www.ncedc.org/acknowledge.html

Terms of Reference
The International Seismological Community recognizes the new opportunities within its field for improved understanding of the internal structure and dynamical properties of the Earth provided by seismograph network technology.
It also recognizes that rapid access to seismic data networks of modern broad-band digital instruments wherever they might be is now possible.
The developments include greatly improved broad-band seismographic systems that capture the entire seismic wave field with high fidelity, efficient and economical data communications and storage and widely available, powerful computing facilities.
The federation is open to all organisations committed to the deployment of broad-band seismographs and organisations involved in management of data from digital seismograph networks, willing to contribute to the establishment of an optimum global system with open and timely data exchange.
I. Goals
In view of the above and to take advantage of existing and developing global and regional networks the “International Federation of Digital Seismograph Networks (FDSN)” provides a forum for:
developing common minimum standards in seismographs (e.g. bandwidth) and recording characteristics (e.g. resolution and dynamic range);
developing standards for quality control and procedures for archiving and exchange of data among component networks;
coordinating the siting of stations in locations that will provide optimum coverage;
pursuing free and open access to data;
improving access to data in real-time.
II. Institutional Frame
The Federation is an independent international association and has commission status within the International Association for Seismology and Physics of the Earth’s Interior (IASPEI).
III. Membership and Organization
Membership in the FDSN is open to national and international organisations committed to both the development and operation of the broad-band digital networks as well as organisations involved in management of data from digital seismograph networks consistent with the goals of the Federation. It is required that each network member will contribute digital waveform data, preferably in real time, from at least one station to the FDSN Archive for Continuous Data as well as to appropriate FDSN Regional Data Centers.
The structure of the FDSN includes a steering committee and an executive committee.
The members of the FDSN steering committee will consist of one representative per member organisation who will be appointed or selected from within the organization they represent.
The members of the FDSN steering committee elect an FDSN executive committee. The executive committee will coordinate the activities of the Federation between meetings and is responsible for the organization and coordination of the steering committee meetings. Members of the FDSN executive committee are elected for a four-year term.
The FDSN executive committee is headed by a chair, who will be assisted by a secretary and the chairs of all FDSN working groups. The chair of the executive committee will preside over the meetings of the steering committee. Members of the executive committee shall be elected from within the steering committee or the member organizations. Elections take place during steering committee meetings.
The FDSN steering committee will form all necessary working groups or special technical committees as required to achieve the objectives of the FDSN. Each working group or special technical committee is headed by a chair.
The FDSN steering committee will deliberate at least once every two years. Special meetings may be called by the chair as necessary for the progress of the FDSN.
Concerning all recommendations made and actions to be taken, each steering committee member of the FDSN will have one vote. A majority of 2/3 voting members will be required for an affirmative vote. Five members of the FDSN will constitute a quorum for FDSN steering committee meetings.
No fees are imposed but voluntary contributions may be requested to cover costs for communications and for organisation of FDSN meetings.
Any member may resign six weeks after giving written notice to the chair.
This group was constituted at the December 1998 FDSN meeting in Seattle to explore avenues for fruitful interaction between the Federation and the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty Organization (CTBTO) and to provide a forum for individual FDSN members to raise and discuss issues of common interest related to the set up and operation of the CTBT International Monitoring System.
FDSN Membership
FDSN Membership
The membership of the FDSN is truly global and not dominated by any one country or group. Members come from all continents. Most members of the FDSN operate stations that are confined to their national boundaries but several FDSN members operate stations well outside their borders.
FDSN Membership includes 98 institutions in 72 countries.
Membership in the FDSN is open to all groups that operate more than one broad-band station. Members agree to coordinate station siting and provide free and open access to their data (normally in SEED format). There is no charge for FDSN membership.
The IRIS Data Management Center in Seattle Washington is a repository for data generated by stations of the FDSN. Members are encouraged to submit data in SEED format to the DMC but it is not mandatory.
The following table lists all FDSN members.
Please note – not all networks available are listed below. Please see the FDSN Station Book Introduction for a more complete listing.
