Usually they do not have to as their instruments and computers can tell them about any earthquake anywhere in the world in minutes of when it happened.

But for certain faults they feel deserve special study, they do there to place special instruments that measure things that would not normally be able to be measured.

What are seismologists?

Seismologists are scientists who study earthquakes and the movements of the Earth's crust. They analyze seismic waves to understand the causes and effects of earthquakes, as well as to help mitigate their impact on society. Seismologists also study other related phenomena, such as volcanic activity and tsunamis.
