Description

Site characterization and environmental-noise modeling are important tasks in the preparation of the ET site-selection procedure. The site-evaluation parameters (SEP) group was created to (1) facilitate the exchange of data, software, and information between the site teams, (2) give guidance for high-quality sensor installations, (3) achieve uniformity between the analysis methods so that results obtained at the two sites are easier to compare, (4) increase awareness in the ET collaboration of the importance of site-evaluation parameters, and (5) provide a software package that allows the modeling of environmental noise in ET based on the known properties of a site. In this talk, we present the status quo of these efforts.
