Seismic arrays are not only used to monitor earthquakes and nuclear tests, but also used as a tool for investigating nature and source regions of microseisms as well as locating and tracking volcanic tremor and analyzing complex seismic wave-field properties in volcanic areas. Seismic arrays can be classified by size, which is defined by the array's aperture given by the largest distance between the single seismometers. The sensors in a seismic array are arranged in different geometry patterns horizontally. The arrays built in the
