In Seiscomp applications, there are numerous ways to enhance maps with custom and tailored layers of information. The creation, management, and customization of individual layers are handled at the file level and do not require any additional tools. In the following three short articles, we provide an overview and demonstrate the possibilities using various examples.

▶ Part 1: Viewing and customizing existing GeoJSON files
Part 2: Creating your own polygons directly in SeisComP
Part 3: Download and install slabs as map layer

In SeisComP Origin Locator View, starting with version 7.2, users can view the current amplitude value in picking mode.
If the spectrogram is activated, its value is also displayed at the cursor.

⌨️ Shortcuts:
Toggle show amplitude value: A
Toggle spectrogram: Shift + S

gempa GmbH is pleased to announce its presentation at the Spring 2026
North America SeisComP User Group Meeting, which is being held as
part of the SSA Annual Meeting.

📅 Date: Friday, 17 April 2026
🕐 Time: 1:00 – 1:45 PM
📍 Location: Ballroom C

This Special Interest Group (SIG) session brings together both new and experienced SeisComP users in an open and informal setting to exchange ideas on software architecture, configuration approaches, and operational workflows. The session encourages collaborative discussion to help define future priorities for the North America SeisComP User Group and to further support the expanding North American user community.

We look forward to insightful conversations and meeting members of the SeisComP community.

SEISMIC ALERT — This morning at 8:16 AM eastern, a magnitude 6.7 earthquake struck the northern Mid-Atlantic Ridge, approximately 1,900 miles from Westport Observatory. Our USGS monitoring equipment detected the significant temblor in real time. There is no danger of a tsunami from this event. https://was-ct.org/science/seismometer/

Excited to introduce RockSigma, a key @COP_PILOT_Horizon partner!

They provide seismic processing software to help mines improve safety and production. In COP-PILOT, they contribute to micro seismic monitoring by integrating new sensors and deploying their software on edge and cloud platforms. This work is crucial for safer mining operations.
