Centro Sismológico Nacional (CSN)

The Centro Sismológico Nacional (CSN) is Chile’s national earthquake monitoring center. It operates specialized equipment to detect and record seismic activity across the country, providing real-time data on earthquakes. This information helps government agencies, scientists, and the public understand and respond to seismic events, contributing to safety measures and preparedness. The CSN plays a key role in earthquake research and ensures timely alerts, supporting Chile’s efforts to mitigate earthquake risks in a seismically active region.
