Data for Urban Seismic Source Mapping (Q6722453)

In this study, we explore the innovative use of existing and ubiquitous urban infrastructure--telecommunication optical fibers--to map urban seismic sources. We integrate seismic interferometry and beamforming algorithms to overcome the proximity limitations of previous urban seismology approaches.Our method models the propagation of seismic surface waves to estimate the spatio-temporal distribution of seismic source power (SSP; average seismic energy per unit of time), enabling the detection and localization of urban seismic sources occurring remotely from optical fibers.
