SEISCOMP

SeisComP is a popular open-source earthquake data acquisition and global location processing system. SeisComP is used worldwide because of its user-friendly graphical interface, automatic earthquake locations, and manual post-processing options. ISTI is an open source developer of SeisComP modules and has years of system integration experience.

In the course, we will focus on the open-source modules of SeisComP; free for non-commercial uses. We will be providing an expert’s insight into the system. You’ll be taught data acquisition and archiving. You’ll learn how to configure and tune global, regional, or local automatic seismic event detection. When the course is over, you’ll be able to improve automatic solutions by re-picking with the graphical user interface.

A typical week-long course will cover:

• Initial installation, including database configuration
• Basic configuration, including station inventory, automatic location bindings, and Seedlink data sources
• Data archiving and data exchange
• Work with the SeisComP GUIs, including viewing event catalogs, and post-processing — picking and relocating events
• Playback and system tuning
