The French seismological and geodetic network Résif-Epos is a research infrastructure that deploys modern instrumentation (seismometers, GNSS stations and gravimeters) in metropolitan France to measure the deformation of the Earth’s surface. The data collected allow us to understand the dynamics of the internal Earth, its natural and anthropogenic hazards, and its interactions with the atmosphere and the ocean.
