As part of a world wide network of gravitational wave detectors, the data produced by our detectors is made available to the other experimental groups for joint searches.

In 1997, gravitational wave detector groups, who at that moment were operating GW detectors, agreed to set up a data exchange protocol called IGEC (International Gravitational Event Collaboration), to coordinate and correlate the data from the detectors for joint searches for burst signals.
The data exchange protocol has been fixed by the IGEC agreement.
