Introduction

EIDA, an initiative within ORFEUS, is a distributed federation of data centres established to securely archive seismic waveform data and metadata gathered by European research infrastructures, and provide transparent access to data for the geosciences research communities. EIDA’s organization and management is handled by the EIDA Management Board (EMB). The EIDA nodes are data centres that collect and archive data from seismic networks deploying broad-band sensors, short period sensors, accelerometers, infrasound sensors, and other geophysical instruments.
Currently EIDA comprises 12 data archives, hosted by the following institutions/organizations:
- ODC/KNMI
Orfeus Data Centre / Koninklijk Nederlands Meterologisch Instituut
- GFZ
Deutsches GFZ Potsdam
- RESIF
Reseau Sismologique & Geodesique Francais
