Digital technologies domdigital.pt are revolutionizing the study of Earth's seismic activity, enabling faster data analysis, improved monitoring, and better disaster response. Here’s how modern tech is transforming seismology:

Smart Seismometers & IoT Sensors

Wireless, real-time seismic sensors (e.g., QCN – Quake-Catcher Network) use low-cost MEMS accelerometers.

Dense Urban Arrays: Cities deploy sensor networks (e.g., Tokyo’s Metrological Agency uses thousands of IoT devices).

Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS)

Turns fiber-optic cables into seismic arrays (useful for offshore and urban monitoring).
