為了解大屯火山地區之岩漿庫的生成原因與幾何形貌，國家科學及技術委員會於民國106年到109年期間進行“台北都會防災科學任務:確認大屯火山地下岩漿庫的位置與形貌的科技計劃，由中央研究院地球科學研究(IES)與大屯火山觀測站(TVO)共同執行。計畫期間在北台灣地區設置高密集之地震觀測網。此地震網包含有140個測站，每個測站間的距離約為5公里，安裝有寬頻地震儀並即時將資料傳送回資料處理中心，為研究人員提供了北台灣地區高密度且高解析的地震資料。
To understand the geometry of the magma chamber beneath the Tatun volcanic area. From 2017 to 2020, the National Science and Technology Council in Taiwan conducted a new project. The Institute of Earth Sciences of the Academia Sinica and the Tatun Volcano Observation at Tatun cooperated to deploy a new high dense seismic network. A total of 140 seismic stations was setup in the northern Taiwan region and equipped with broadband seismometers for transmitting real-time data to the data center. The distance between the stations is about 5 kilometers away, providing researchers with high-density and high-resolution seismic data.
