The International Seismological Centre maintains a database of Reference earthquakes and explosions for which epicentre information (lat, lon, depth) is known with high confidence (to 10km or better (GT10)) with seismic signals recorded at regional and/or teleseismic distances. The global effort of collecting and validating GT events is coordinated by the CoSOI/IASPEI Working Group on Reference Events for Improved Locations chaired by Bob Engdahl and Paul Richards. This database of a significantly large number of reference events facilitates better visualization of the Earth structure, better modelling of velocities of seismic waves, more accurate travel time determinations and increased accuracy of event locations.
