Abstract
OGS manages an integrated seismic network designed to monitor regional seismic activity
of North-East Italy (NI) and surroundings. The network includes 11 digital broadband
seismometers and 27 short period stations. Waveforms and parametric data are exchanged
in real time with the local Civil Defence agencies, the INGV, the Earth Science Department of
the University of Trieste, the Zentralanstalt für Meterologie und Geodynamik (ZAMG) in
Vienna, and the Agencija Republike Slovenije za Okolje (ARSO) in Ljubljana, in order to
support emergency management and seismological studies in the whole Alps–Dinarides
junction zone. The Antelope software suite from BRTT has been chosen as the common
basis for real time data exchange, rapid location of earthquakes and alerting
