The importance of rapid recovery of newly-fallen meteorites leads to the consideration of seismic methods for the location of impact points. An attempt is made to discuss the degree to which seismic networks can augment the detection of meteorites by conventional means. Factors involved in the generation of seismic waves are considered. The present sophistication of experimental and computational techniques in seismology should enable a microearthquake detection network to locate within 2 km the impacts of larger meteorites. The detection limits are determined by meteorite size and the configuration and instrumentation of the seismograph network.
