9 pp. (2005)., The study of ground motion and its impact on the International Linear Collider (ILC), where $e^+ e^-$ beams of the order of nanometers must collide with high luminosities, may not be negligible. All sources of vibration, including ground motion, can cause the beams to simply miss each other at the interaction region (IR).In this paper, we describe a program of site characterization and comparison, via measurement of ground motion spectra, using inertial broadband seismometers. The emphasis is on using the same equipment and data analysis techniques as applied to all the sites studied. Our database of ground motion measurements for each site is available to the scientific community.
