6. 02.07.20031 st Project Review – Luxembourg How Can the Time Lag Be Measured? The „ChannelPlotterNode“ from the SeismoPalette displays one channel of a seismogram. Because the propagation speed is known, distance to the hypocenter can be computed Primary wave front Secondary wave front Time lag

7. 02.07.20031 st Project Review – Luxembourg Visualisation: Top View In this example three sensors report an earthquake. For each sensor a cricle is calculated and displayed in a top view. Each circle discribes the distance to one and the same earthquake from different sensors.

10. 02.07.20031 st Project Review – Luxembourg Collaboration Scenarios An exchange of data provided by each sensor is the minimal requirement for collaboration. A competitive scenario: calculate the most exact position of the hypocenter under the given time constraints. Possible variations of the results will reveal the quality of the used model (eg. Is the assumption of straigth-line propagation correct?, Is the ground really isotropic?, etc) Share event files, discuss results and find physical models for specific events that motivate collaboration Exchange of observations between groups experiencing and not experiencing the fenomena

11. 02.07.20031 st Project Review – Luxembourg Collaboration to WP WP2 Pedagogical model and scenario description: we provide a CSCL platform WP4/5 Remote/Local Scenarios: we provide a scenario for monitoring data produced by a natural phenomena which takes place locally (or in a remote situation) WP3 Platforms and tools: we provide a tool for facilitating the data analysis and the construction of seismic platforms with RCX
