Dear network contacts,

Invitation to submit contributions.

IUGG Session J-S05 Infrastructure for seismology (FDSN)

At the IUGG 2011 (www.iugg2011.com http://www.iugg2011.com/ ) IASPEI
meeting (June 30 - July 4, 2011) The FDSN organises a specific session
(J-So5) at the meeting (see below for details), an FDSN General Assembly
meeting and FDSN Working Groups meetings (see attached schedule). We
encourage you to submit relevant contributions to the IUGG session. This
is the occasion to obtain a complete overview over the global
seismological observational infrastructure. We encourage both oral and
poster presentations.

The FDSN General Assembly and its workshop meetings discuss on-going
developments, station siting and instrumentation (WG1), format standards
and data centers (WG2), products, tools and services (WG3), coordination
with the CTBTO (WG4), and portable instrumentation (WG5). More details
can be found on www.fdsn.org http://www.fdsn.org/ . We encourage
network operators to participate in these open meetings en contribute to

IUGG Session J-S05 Infrastructure for seismology (FDSN)

Submission deadline: Februari 1, 2011

Lead Convenors: Gerardo Suarez (Mexico), Torild van Eck (The
Netherlans), Rhett Butler (United States of America)

Scope: The International Federation of Digital Seismograph Networks
(FDSN) is a global organization. Its membership is comprised of groups
responsible for the installation and maintenance of seismographs either
within their geographic borders or globally. Membership in the FDSN is
open to all organizations that operate more than one broadband station.
Members agree to coordinate station siting and provide free and open
access to their data. This cooperation helps scientists all over the
world to further the advancement of earth science and particularly the
study of global seismic activity. The FDSN also holds commission status
within IASPEI.
We encourage technical/scientific contributions providing an overview of
networks intending to become member of the FDSN, new transformative
developments at FDSN member networks and innovative technical
developments that have had a significant impact on facilitating and
promoting efficient transnational real-time data exchange. The session
will be accompanied by a number of side meetings of the different FDSN
working groups (see also www.fdsn.org
