Abstract
A network of fifty-four broad-band seismometers that forms part of the international Kaapvaal Craton programme (Carison et al, 1996) was deployed at over eighty separate locations across southern Africa from April 1997 until April 1999. The seismology group at the University of the Witwatersrand was responsible for operating and maintaining part of the network, and has developed new facilities and research initiatives in applying broadband seismology to the study of earth structure and regional seismicity.
