Overview

QuakeVault is QuakeLogic’s next-generation rugged edge server for permanent seismic, infrasound and structural health monitoring (SHM) data retention and analytics. Built on fanless industrial hardware with RAID 1 mirrored SSD storage, it archives continuous waveform data in time-indexed MiniSEED format while serving it in real time through an embedded SeedLink-compatible wave server, web dashboard and RESTful API.

QuakeVault ships with two integrated software layers: QuakeVault DataHub, a high-performance wave server that buffers and distributes real-time data to multiple clients with sub-second latency, and QuakeVault Real-Time Wave Analytics, a full analysis suite with helicorder, spectra, spectrogram and particle-motion views, RSAM alarms, phase picking, Hypo71 event location and QuakeML export. Choose the Seismic Monitoring or Infrasound Monitoring option to match your sensor network — from earthquake and volcano observatories to AI data center infrasound noise monitoring.

QuakeVault DataHub — Real-Time Wave Server

QuakeVault DataHub is a high-performance wave server that collects, buffers, and distributes real-time seismic and infrasound data to client applications. It forms the backbone of QuakeLogic’s monitoring ecosystem, ensuring reliable and continuous waveform delivery for analysis and visualization systems such as QuakeVault and PulsePro.

  • Real-Time Data Streaming — continuously receives and serves waveform data from field stations with sub-second latency.
  • Circular Data Buffering — rolling buffers for instant retrieval without data gaps.
  • Multi-Client Access — simultaneous connections from multiple users and analysis systems without performance loss.
  • Standard Protocols — compatible with Earthworm, SeedLink, and FDSN-style data requests.
  • Configurable Retention & Performance — adjustable storage duration, buffer size, and timeout settings.
  • Secure and Reliable — user authentication, connection monitoring, and automatic recovery after network interruptions.
  • API Support — RESTful endpoints for programmatic waveform access, metadata queries, and system health checks.

Applications

  • Structural health monitoring of bridges, dams, hospitals, high-rise buildings and silos.
  • Remote seismic stations requiring long-term autonomy and local data retention.
  • Backup and edge storage for regional and national seismic networks.
  • Earthquake and volcano observatories — helicorder walls, RSAM alarms and event location.
  • Infrasound monitoring — explosion, volcano and bolide detection, industrial noise compliance.
  • AI data center noise monitoring — continuous retention and analysis of low-frequency cooling-system noise; see our guide on AI data center infrasound monitoring.
  • Academic and government research in seismology, geophysics and SHM.

Frequently asked questions

What is QuakeVault?

QuakeVault is a rugged, fanless edge server that permanently archives seismic, infrasound and structural health monitoring data and serves it in real time. It combines RAID 1 mirrored SSD storage, an embedded SeedLink-compatible wave server, a web dashboard and a RESTful API in one industrial unit.

Which data formats and protocols does QuakeVault support?

Data is archived in time-indexed MiniSEED format. The wave server is SeedLink-compatible and interoperates with Earthworm, FDSN Web Services and Winston protocols. The analytics suite also imports SAC, SEED, miniSEED, SEISAN, MATLAB text and WIN files, and exports events in QuakeML format for interoperability with global seismic databases.

How does QuakeVault protect my data?

Waveform data is written simultaneously to two 1TB SSDs in a RAID 1 mirror, so a single drive failure causes no data loss. The system adds SSH access control, a firewall and VPN support, and DataHub automatically recovers client connections after network interruptions.

Can QuakeVault be used for infrasound and AI data center noise monitoring?

Yes. QuakeVault is offered in an Infrasound Monitoring configuration and pairs naturally with the QuakeLogic AIR 2.0 infrasound monitor. It archives and analyzes low-frequency acoustic data for applications such as AI data center noise monitoring, industrial noise compliance, volcano and explosion detection.

Can I access QuakeVault remotely?

Yes. The web dashboard provides real-time waveform preview, alerts and system health from any browser, and the RESTful API supports programmatic data queries and system control. Gigabit LAN is standard, with optional Wi-Fi or 4G LTE for remote stations, and firmware updates are delivered over the air.

What analytics software is included?

QuakeVault includes the Real-Time Wave Analytics suite: helicorder, wave, spectra, spectrogram and particle-motion views, Butterworth filtering, RSAM with alarm thresholds, P/S/coda phase picking, coda and duration magnitudes, S-P distance mapping, Hypo71 event location, interactive station maps and a full-screen Kiosk Mode for control rooms.
