Abstract

The catalogue of earthquakes from the Vogtland/Western Bohemia region joins data which have been observed with local seismic stations since 1962. Up to now, data on more than 17.000 earthquakes were compiled to the catalogue. A special code VOCATUS supports its use and explains the collected data. Both, catalogue and code VOCATUS are described. From the catalogue, there follows a recurrence of the earthquake occurrence which is discussed in detail.
