Its main tasks are the recording, collection and processing of the various seismological – geophysical parameters.

The unit operates on a daily 24 hour basis (24/7), 365 days a year. The analysis and assessment of the seismic activity is fulfilled by the institute’s research and scientific staff. The unit performs the critical mission of  the dissemination of the relevant information, on a 24-hour basis, to state bodies such as the General Secretariat for Civil Protection, the Earthquake Planning and Protection Organization, and to the public.
