Data Set From Molisan Regional Seismic Network Events

TL;DR

This paper presents a comprehensive seismic dataset collected by the Molisan Regional Seismic Network from 2007 to 2009, including event annotations and spectrograms, to facilitate data mining and machine learning research on seismic data.

Contribution

It provides a structured seismic dataset with detailed annotations and spectrograms, enabling advanced analysis and pattern recognition in seismic signals.

Findings

Dataset includes all triggers from 2007 to 2009.

Seismic events are marked with S and P wave timestamps.

Spectrograms are associated with each trigger for analysis.

Abstract

After the earthquake occurred in Molise (Central Italy) on 31st October 2002 (Ml 5.4, 29 people dead), the local Servizio Regionale per la Protezione Civile to ensure a better analysis of local seismic data, through a convention with the Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia (INGV), promoted the design of the Regional Seismic Network (RMSM) and funded its implementation. The 5 stations of RMSM worked since 2007 to 2013 collecting a large amount of seismic data and giving an important contribution to the study of seismic sources present in the region and the surrounding territory. This work reports about the dataset containing all triggers collected by RMSM since July 2007 to March 2009, including actual seismic events; among them, all earthquakes events recorded in coincidence to Rete Sismica Nazionale Centralizzata (RSNC) of INGV have been marked with S and P arrival timestamps. Every trigger has been associated to a spectrogram defined into a recorded time vs. frequency domain. The main aim of this structured dataset is to be used for further analysis with data mining and machine learning techniques on image patterns associated to the waveforms.
