Purpose and scope of the operations manual
In developing a network such as the BSRN, decisions need to be m ade on such questions as:
•
what equipm ent should be purchased based upon the estim ated accuracy, cost and
m aintenance requirem ents?
•
where and for how long should the m easurem ents be m ade?
•
how will the instrum entation be m aintained at each location?
