The MEM Project (Interreg IIIA Adriatic Cross Border Programme) has been activated in the INGV<br />

(Italian Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia) Observatory of LAquila since 2004. The leader<br />

partner of the project is the Abruzzo Region. One of the purposes of the MEM project is the<br />

electromagnetic monitoring of the geodynamic processes related to the seismic activity. To that end<br />

inside this project the upgrade of the INGV tectonomagnetic network was scheduled. The INGV<br />

tectonomagnetic network was installed inCentral Italysince the middle of 1989 to investigate possible<br />

seismomagnetic effects related to earthquakes occurrences. The network is part of the INGV L'Aquila<br />

Geomagnetic Observatory. Here, we are reporting the actual state and the future developments of the<br />

network. At the present time, total geomagnetic field intensity data are collected in four stations using<br />

proton precession magnetometers. During 2007 the network will be updated with new other stations<br />

with the aim to thicken the network and to extend the research area. Each network station will be<br />

supplied with a new overhauser magnetometer and a 3-axes magnetometer. Some tests, carried out to<br />

select the location of the new stations, are shown. Here we also report the 2006 dataset of the network<br />

stations showing a different approach in the data analysis that takes into account the inductive effects<br />

on the total geomagnetic field intensity by means of the inter-station transfer functions.<br />
