Concept

The CCUBE (Communication Cube) is a modular communication device for real-time data transmission recorded by the DATA-CUBE³.

 

It is the optimal DATA-CUBE³ extension for near real-time seismic data streaming in miniSEED format (seedlink) to meet today’s needs for real-time seismic data streaming. Applications like tsunami or hazard early warning as well as monitoring infrastructure or geothermal fields require continuous live sensor data for quick analysis, risk mitigation and fast reactions based on ultra-rapid assessments.

 

The CCUBE provides a robust and reliable solution for transmitting seismic and other sensor data.

 

Moreover, classical long-term seismological and geophysical installations benefit from live data streaming and state-of-health monitoring.

IP Communication

Live streaming for geophysical instruments

The CCUBE is designed for low power operation and to reliably transmit seismic data via 4G/LTE, WiFi or other IP-based communication methods.

Well suited

For applications like:
  • Tsunami or hazard early warning systems which require continuous live sensor data for quick analysis, risk mitigation and fast reactions based on ultra-rapid assessments
  • Classical long-term seismology
  • Other geophysical installations that benefit from the streamed live data and state-of-health monitoring
