Abstract: A housing for a seismic sensor station has a base and a removable lid, which when assembled together form a shell whereby the base and the removable lid both have a shell side and an exterior side. A sensor spike, protruding outward from the shell, may be attached to the base on the exterior side of the base. The housing is further provided with two cable docking ports, each allowing passage of a fiber optical cable from outside to inside the shell. The two cable docking ports are exclusively provided in the removable lid.

Abstract: Sensor stations, system and methods for sensing seismic parameters of a subsurface structure are provided. The sensor station includes a sensor housing and a sensor unit. The sensor housing includes a base with a removable lid and receptacles for receiving the fiber optic cable therethrough. The base has a cavity therein accessible upon removal of the removable lid. The sensor unit is positionable in the cavity of the sensor housing. The sensor unit is operatively connectable to a portion of the optical fibers of the fiber optic cable for communicating seismic data sensed by the sensor unit.
