other national institutes and agencies, according to specific protocols or agreements. All seismic data have been made available upon request for scientific research applications, requiring manual intervention on the preparation of data volumes. Recently, a special service was created, to properly disseminate and make available seismic data for national and international research activities, including raw data and metadata. This service was developed in the framework of the C4G initiative, the Portuguese colaboratory for Geosciences, which is the Portuguese counterpart of the European Plate Observing System. C4G counts with the participation of Portuguese institutes and universities with scientific infrastructure in the fields of seismology, geodesy, geology, and geomagnetism, and is supported by the FCT. The seismic data server is based on the SeiscomP3 technology and aims to integrate the European Integrated Data Archives (EIDA, ORFEUS). The server allows two ways of reaching the data, either via webservices or via a web interface. Multiple webservices are available, including FDSNWS, WFCatalog, and ArcLink (the latter one to be discontinued). The web interface allows users to either explore seismic events from multiple online catalogs or station metadata from the available networks. The first available

N2 - Portugal, located in the southwest region of the Eurasian plate, has been affected by several destructive earthquakes throughout its history, the most well-known being the 1755 Great Lisbon earthquake. The seismicity of the territory, both in the mainland and in the Azores and Madeira islands, has prompted the continuous development of seismic monitoring, from the first known macroseismic inquiry, following the 1755 Great Lisbon earthquake, to the current state-of-The-Art seismic network. Once scattered in separate efforts, at present, most seismic stations in Portugal relay its data to acommon data center, at Instituto Português do Mar e da Atmosfera, where data are automatically processed for the downstream generation of both manually revised and automatically generated products and services. In this article, we summarize the evolution of the permanent seismic network, its current status, the products and services that are publicly available, a recent effort of rapid deployment of a dense network following a mainshock, and state-of-The-Art ocean-bottom seismometer developments.
