AB: One of the biggest challenges into the Seismic Network of Bolivia, composed of seven stations, is to connect all the differents characteristic of them. The Observatory San Calixto, network operator, is one of the few private seismic observatories in the world and for this reason is working only with agreement support or extern cooperation. This problem needs a promptly solution to obtain data system more convenient, in a real time, more effective and compatible with a future extension network. Now, we have differences in the equipment and transmission too. Two of our network stations, are part of the IMS (International System of Data), the information are transmitted by telemetry way from Primary Station PS6 (LPAZ) to OSC, and then by Vsat to IMS and by optic fiber to AFTAC. The auxiliary seismic station AS08 (SIV) sends information to DASE France by satellite way, and then DASE transmits to the IMS, and to the OSC by Internet. Similar situation is used for another station: MOC. The data of the other four stations are transmitted by telemetry to the OSC center, but here the difference with the other stations is that they are working with analogy system. This network does not cover all the Bolivian territory for a completed monitoring of the seismic activity of the country. For this reason it is very important for Bolivia to extend the network with installation of other stations and a project for the characteristic compatibility (formats specially) of this news stations with the actual stations and temporally stations. Temporally stations are mainly used to support the network and to obtain the evaluation of micro activity in some areas that have a possible seismic threat and because of the actual network distribution where the activity is unknown for us.
