Description

Burkina Faso NDC and IDC have worked in the field of seismic and infrasound to conduct investigations of various catastrophes. That's how we carried out investigations into the Ouagadougou explosion and Air Algeria crash respectively on 15 and 24 July 2014 and which allowed us to locate them. In recent years, various studies demonstrate the use of technology valuable infrasound as a complement to existing surveillance networks. Thus, to increase resources nes, participate in various discussions and make our contribution, we are looking for these types of forums to enjoy the experience of others to build our emerging NDC.
