Seismic Survey 2016 Metadata at San Emidio, Nevada

Published by University of Wisconsin | Department of Energy | Catalog Last Checked: March 23, 2026 at 09:41 PM | Dataset Last Updated: June 28, 2024 at 04:02 PM
1301 Vertical Component seismic instruments were deployed at San Emidio Geothermal field in Nevada in December 2016. The first record starts at 2016-12-05T02:00:00.000000Z (UTC) and the last record ends at 2016-12-11T14:00:59.998000Z (UTC). Data are stored in individual files in one-minute increments. Data includes seismic station locations, seismic data logger specifications, instrumentation specifications, descriptions of data, a fracture finding summary and the final report for the 2016 WHOLESCALE seismic survey done in San Emidio, Nevada.
