Optimal configuration of a seismographic network: A statistical approach

Abstract

We consider the problem of selecting sites for a seismographic network so that the network resolution will be optimal. Configurations are compared via the D-optimality criterion proposed in the statistical literature on optimal design of experiments. Optimal configurations are found using the efficient DETMAX algorithm. We also show how to implement the criterion and the algorithm in the presence of spatially correlated error terms.
