Seismic data

Seismic data refers to information collected by sensors that detect ground movements caused by natural earthquakes or human activities like mining or construction. These sensors, called seismometers, record vibrations as waveforms, revealing how energy travels through the Earth. Analyzing seismic data helps scientists understand Earth's internal structure, locate earthquakes, and assess their strength. It's like using a detailed recording of ground tremors to uncover what’s happening deep beneath the surface, providing essential insights for safety, research, and resource exploration.
