Modern trends in local problems of seismicity privilege establishing seismographs in the boreholes or inside the mines or deep tunnels. From the point of view of local shallow seismic activity such a station system forms a three-dimensional network.
Analysis of signs of the P-waves from a nearby focus provides large possibilities such as determination of an approximate position and depth interval and an appropriate fault-plane solution.
These advantages of a three-dimensional network become effective when a system of coordinate planes drawn from each station is cutting a seismic region into relatively small parallelepiped blocks.
The examples based on the data from the Upper-Silesia are presented; the computer program is here suitable.
