Abstract

Summary

Virtual Seismological Network of Sofia University (VSNSU) is operating since 2015 and it is supported by the Scientific Research Fund of Sofia University. The network consists of 16 seismic stations from 6 different countries in the Balkan Peninsula region. The seismological database consists of structured files containing: the characteristics of each analyzed earthquake (location, origin time, depth, etc.); different magnitudes; focal mechanisms; and seismic phases from the station records. The database structured a different measurements made since the operation of the VSNSU and included also the available information from different international datacenters. Database includes also the specific manuals for the used software explained by an individual example. The purpose of the established database is to simplify the education and research of the students as well as to contribute to the inter-institutional international cooperation.
