ABSTRACT:
Systems and methods for monitoring and tracking transients caused by geological events are provided. In one embodiment, a geological event monitoring system is provided. The system comprises a sensor array having a plurality of geologic activity sensors adapted to receive positioning signals from one or more Earth orbiting satellites and further adapted to receive a resolution enhancement signal from at least one reference station, the geologic activity sensors further adapted to measure motion activity; and a central monitoring system adapted to communicate with the sensor array, wherein the sensor array measures motion activity at a plurality of locations and transmits time stamped data characterizing the motion activity at the plurality of locations to the central monitoring system, the central monitoring system further adapted to correlate the time stamped data and track movement and inertial forces experienced by the plurality of geologic activity sensors over time.
