Centro Sismológico de Sonseca, Seismic observatory in Orgaz, Spain.
The Centro Sismológico de Sonseca contains 26 monitoring stations spread across the region, collecting continuous data about ground movements and seismic activity.
The United States Air Force Technical Applications Center established this monitoring facility in 1956 to detect nuclear tests in New Mexico, Novaya Zemlya, Rajasthan, and Algeria.
The observatory contributes to international cooperation through real-time data sharing with the United Nations International Data Centre in Vienna for nuclear monitoring.
Scientists at the facility process seismic information from national networks and calculate earthquake magnitudes as a backup center for the National Seismic Network.
The station operates as Primary Station PS40 within the international network supporting the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty Organization monitoring system.
