Data from our equipment is used in local, regional and national arrays located around the globe to advance human understanding of how the Earth's crust behaves. Applications for these arrays include:

• Seismic research - understanding fundamental mechanisms
• Event detection and location - monitoring local, regional and global seismicity and aftershock monitoring
• Earthquake Early Warning (EEW) - for civil and industrial applications as well as emergency response coordination
• Seismic hazard management - earthquake monitoring as part of safety management plans
• Induced and triggered Seismicity - differentiating between natural and man made events both for commercial and national security applications
• Aftershock monitoring - information about smaller aftershocks can be used for a variety of purposes including research and emergency response coordination
