National Earthquake DataBase
Canada’s National Earthquake Database combines raw seismograph data, measurements, and derived parameters from national seismic networks.
About National Earthquake DataBase
The National Earthquake DataBase is Canada's national repository for raw seismograph data, measurements, and derived parameters from the Canadian National Seismograph Network, the Yellowknife Seismological Array, and several current and former regional and local networks. It supports Canadian seismicity monitoring, global seismic monitoring, verification of the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty, and international data exchange.
Its Parameters database holds available information for Canadian earthquakes since the 16th century, including epicentral solutions, phase arrival measurements and comments, with an index to digital waveform data in the National Waveform Archive for modern events. Its Stations database holds seismograph station data, including stations from cooperating networks such as POLARIS, SOSN, and NONT.
