Abstract : This Project is planning to establish a micro-geodetic network on NW-SE trending Tuzla fault-Izmir in order to determine the relative displacements and to perform strain analysis by using GPS technique. This project is planning to perform a large scale monitoring study as combination of episodic GPS observations and precise leveling observations to determine displacement vectors and strain rates in order to understand fault characteristics of Tuzla fault.

Abstract : In this study, it is planned to detect current crustal deformation by GPS technique on the four microgeodetic networks which are located along the western part of North Anatolian Fault Zone.The GPS velocities data coming from geodynamic GPS networks of the crustal deformation studies and the analysis of repeated geodetic observations give us significant information about the elastic deformation. Therefore, the data which will be gathered from this project can be integrated with previous data and used to analyze GPS velocity fields and strain accumulation in the study area.
