Orfeus EIDA

EIDA EIDA, an initiative within ORFEUS, is a distributed federation of datacenters established to (a) securely archive seismic waveform data and metadata gathered by European research infrastructures, and (b) to provide transparent access to the archives by the geosciences research communities. EIDA's organization and management is done by the EIDA Management Board (EMB). EIDA nodes are data centres which collect and archive data from seismic networks deploying broad-band sensors, short period sensors, accelerometers, infrasound sensors, and other geophysical instruments. Networks and stations contributing data to EIDA are listed in the EIDA network list and station database. EIDA runs a monitoring tool to keep track of the status of the system and the usage in terms of data download.
