Project information

The NERIES project has ended on 31 May 2010. A lot of the activities will be continued in the NERA project (proposed starting date: 1 November 2010).

NERIES (2006-2010) is an Integrated Infrastructure Initiative (I3) project in the Sixth Framework Program (FP6) of the European Commission (EC), aiming at networking the European seismic networks, improving access to data, allowing access to specific seismic infrastructures and pursuing targeted research developing the next generation of tools for improved service and data analysis.

The NERIES consortium consists of 25 participants (European universities and research centres) executing 18 different activities: 9 Networking Activities (NA), 5 Joint Research Activities (JRA), and 5 activities concerning Transnational Access (TA).

The core of the NERIES project organization lies with the Observatories and Research Facilities for European Seismology (ORFEUS) and the European Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC). Both organizations are working under the auspices of the European Seismological Commission (ESC). The NERIES Project Office is situated at the Royal Netherlands Meteorological Institute (KNMI).
