Close to the lair of Odysseus Cyclops: the SINAPS@ post- seismic campaign and accelerometric network installation on Kefalonia island

The Koutavos-Argostoli (Kefalonia, Greece) site was selected within the ANR-PIA SINAPS@ project (www.institut-seism.fr/projets/sinaps/) to host a vertical accelerometricarray. The long term goal is to validate 3D nonlinear numerical simulation codes. This article shortly presents the site and its geodynamic, geological and seismic backgrounds, the borehole instrumentation and the associated geotechnical information, and the first results of the post-seismic campaign organized following the seismic sequence of January-February 2014 including two M6 + shocks and numerous aftershocks.
