Although earthquakes cannot yet be accurately predicted, many scientific endeavors have been put forth to forecast the probabilities of earthquake occurrences, aiming to mitigate seismic hazards. Throughout the course of equipment and processing improvements in the last decades, GNSS data has shown...
