Abstract
In 2015, the seismic monitoring in Kazakhstan was conducted by two Organizations: Seismological Experience-Methodical Expedition of the Ministry of Education and Science of the Republic of Kazakhstan (SEME), and the Republican State Enterprise Institute of Geophysical Research of the Ministry of Energy of the Republic of Kazakhstan (IGR). The paper presents detailed information on seismic observation networks. The joint catalogue based on the data of two organizations was compiled. It includes 489 earthquakes having energy class KR=6.6–12.2. The largest earthquake occurred on January 20, 2015 near the Semipalatinsk Test Site. The earthquake had magnitude MPVA=5.3, energy class KR=12.2, and was felt in a range of Kazakhstan settlements.
