About International Seismological Centre

International Seismological Centre (ISC), registered in SAM.gov since 2009, is a non-profit international organization based in Thatcham, UK, specializing in comprehensive global seismic data collection, analysis, and cataloging. The organization focuses on maintaining detailed earthquake records and providing critical scientific research support to global seismological understanding. ISC operates as a premier global seismological research and data management entity, generating extensive historical and contemporary earthquake parameter databases that serve multiple scientific, governmental, and research purposes.

ISC has been awarded federal grants from the U.S. Geological Survey's Office of Acquisitions and Grants, primarily focused on enhancing and advancing the ISC-GEM Global Instrumental Earthquake Catalogue. Recent grant awards, such as G24AP00440 (September 2024-August 2026), involve comprehensive earthquake data refinement, including re-computing historical earthquake parameters, digitizing historical station records, and improving earthquake location, depth, and magnitude estimates. The organization's work directly supports critical earthquake hazard research, contributing to the ANSS Comprehensive Earthquake Catalog (ComCat), seismic hazard mapping, and global earthquake response efforts. ISC collaborates with academic institutions like Columbia University, which has provided sub-grant funding, and serves researchers, governmental agencies, and international scientific communities by producing high-quality, long-term seismic data spanning from 1904 to the present.
