A test (!) and new sites installed

While being a test for this blog site, I'd like to give an update on what has been happening with the 1Hz Grant of excellence project lately.
All quadripods have been installed in the Hekla network. At selected sites instruments are running on solar panels, collecting 15s data to the internal memory.
Sigrun Hreinsdóttir has been drilling a lot in the Hveravellir region with IMO's new technichian, Þorgils Ingvarsson. They have finished one installation at Hveravellir, HVEL - a quadripod installation. Tomorrow (15. Aug) they are going to finish a PBO installation at Lambafell.

Þorgils installed an instrument at Nýlenda at the western edge of the Reykjanes Peninsula 2 weeks ago.

4 weeks ago we finished installing a seismic and CGPS station at Goðaland, Mýrdalsjökull as a part of the European VOLUME project. The gps station (GOLA) is collecting 15 and 1s data but we have not finished the installation where the radiosignal from the instruments is recepted.

Sigurjón Jónsson and Halldór Geirsson are going tomorrow to North Iceland to select sites for 10 CGPS stations.
