Abstract: During design of a network of seismological stations, it is necessary to fulfill certain conditions that will enable the obtaining of high quality records of seismic waves and defining of earthquake parameters with as better as possible accuracy. This will provide high quality seismological and geophysical data which are of interest for the seismology and the earthquake engineering. The accuracy of the earthquake parameters, the geographical coordinates of the epicenter, the hypocentral depth and the hypocentral time (time at which the earthquake occurred) depend on a number of factors among which are the following: the model of the structure of the Earth’s crust in the territory where the stations are installed. This includes: the geometry of the layers, their physical characteristics (velocity of the seismic waves, the density of matter), the homogeneity or the inhomogeneity and alike. The geometrical distribution of the locations of the seismological stations. The geotechnical characteristics of the locations where the seismological stations are installed.
