Local geodynamic researches in Sudetes and the Mediterranean Region

The general characteristics of local tectonic movements studies basing on the self-developed monitoring system are presented in the paper. The system has been installed on some selected objects in the Sudetes (e.g. "Snieznik Massif and "Dobromierz") and in the Mediterranean basin ("Gargano" and "Norcia" in Italy, "Kaparelli" in Greece). These research areas are located in zones characterised with different magnitudes of recent tectonic activity. The main attention is given to organisation standards of the research network and monitoring of movements using GPS. The accuracy analysis of repeated GPS observations with respect to tectonic movements detection is also presented.
