The instruments are operated by Lamont-Doherty Geological Observatory, the University of Kentucky, and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Strong Motion Instrumentation Program at the Corp's Waterways Experiment Station in Vicksburg, MS. Purpose: The data was generated to help in understanding the seismotectonic hazards in the vicinity of the lower Wabash Valley.
