Abstract

The authors offer a new approach to processing seismological reports using Voronoi diagrams to detect clustered dynamic events in an area exposed to high production loading, implemented as a cloud service in the framework of geomechanical–geodynamic safety system of Kuzbass. The cloud service allows pre-processing of array of seismic events prior to computation of migration trajectories of reduced seismic energy release centers according to Oparin, which greatly improves computation accuracy. The article reports the results of seismicity assessment for the Kemerovo Region using the chain of services “Voronoi diagram–migration trajectories of reduced seismic energy release centers.”
