On March 6, 2009 a magnitude 4.6 earthquake occurred near Korumburra in southeast Victoria. This event was followed by a series of earthquakes lasting for several months. In the days following this earthquake six temporary high-sample rate seismic recorders were deployed in the epicentral region by Geoscience Australia (GA), Environmental Systems and Services (ES&S) and Gary Gibson. These instruments complemented the permanent networks operated by GA and ES&S, and captured a second large shock on March 18 also measuring 4.6 and many smaller aftershocks.
