The SIMRAC project COL816 investigated the feasibility of a small, independent device monitoring local seismicity and extracting similar activity information to what can be recorded by a temporary network of seismometers. To do this seismic signals from a uni-axial geophone mounted on a roof-bolt stub were continuously logged while a small seismic network simultaneously operated. Various algorithms were developed and applied to the continuous data to find the one that most closely reflected the network data. A satisfactory correspondence was found, paving the way for development of such a Counting Seismometer
