Since 1981, the Geological Survey manages seismic network composed by seven stations (all of them on its territory) and by three new stations in the nearby Province of Bolzano.
The stations, together with those from Switzerland, Austria and Friuli, guarantee a good coverage of the Alps.

Details on the Provincial Seismic Network

Due to the historical evolution of the network and to the fast technological progress of the last years, data of seismic events are collected in three different databases:

• Historical database (from 238 a.d. to 1984)
  Data from historical and archival researches
  

• Instrumental Archive (from 1984 to 1993)
  Data from the Analogical Network (1982-1990), managed in collaboration with l'Osservatorio Geofisico Sperimentale di Trieste (O.G.S.), and from the first digital network (1991 – 1993)
  

• Digital-instrumental Archive (since 1994)
  Data from the Digital Network, managed only by the Geological Survey
  The three above mentioned archives have been joined in one database, now interactively consultable on the web!
