Three-day monitor Nearly Real Time Status History -Power Supply -Tracked GPS Satellites -Gaps The last day The last week An automatic process on the Linux O.S. creates a file with power supply value registered by GAIA2 seismic data logger. By Crontab & SCP connection we extract and archive power supply values every 10 minutes. The power supply values are shown on three-day Monitor (updated every hour) to check the functionalities of the different power supply systems. Constant supply: Electrical Power Line on site Gradient supply: (methanol) fuel cell The last month All data Impulsive supply: Solar panels Power Supply Trends on each seismic station 4 / 10

Three-day monitor Nearly Real Time Status History -Power Supply -Tracked GPS Satellites -Gaps An automatic process on the Linux O.S. creates a file with tracked satellites value on the GPS system of the GAIA2 seismic data logger. By Crontab & SCP connection we extract and archive tracked satellites values every 10 minutes. The tracked satellite values are shown on three-day Monitor to check the functionalities of the seismic station GPS system. Seismic station GPS check 4 / 10

Yesterday monitor Nearly Real Time Status History -Power Supply -Tracked GPS Satellites -Gaps We apply «qmerge» Passcall software on each seismic channel to monitor the gap trends. The number of gaps are shown on «yesterday» monitor, but the whole gap history is archived. Gap trends check Satellite links in bad weather conditions (snow) 4 / 10

Seismometer Performance and Site Quality - Seismic Noise Probability Density Function (PDF) Evaluation of seismic noise over a long time by PQLX software (*McNamara and Buland, 2004) : trace statistics, Power Spectral Densities (PSD) and Probability Density Functions (PDF). PQLX server writes the results to a MySQL database for quick access Implementation at INGV-Ancona acquisition center: - PQLX server starts every day by crontab process - Data extraction tools allow to evaluate noise levels and statistics about subset of data (in ex., diurnal and nightly data) The stationary background noise is characterized by the highest probability of occurrence (mode) Mode: stable noise model for each station *McNamara, D.E. and R.P.
