Our Membership Community
COSMOS membership includes a broad mix of organizations working on strong-motion earthquake monitoring. This includes network operators who run stations and collect ground-motion data, government agencies responsible for geological survey and public safety programs, universities and research institutes studying earthquake science and engineering, and utility and infrastructure organizations with a direct interest in seismic resilience.
Together, these members contribute records, expertise, and resources that help COSMOS carry out its mission of improving strong-motion data collection and use. Institutions from around the world have participated in COSMOS activities over the years, reflecting the international nature of strong-motion research and earthquake risk.
