EIDA @ BGR Hannover, Germany

Use the popular command-line tool arclink_fetch from inside the Seiscomp3 environment or as stand-alone installation. We provide Dataless-Seed-Volumes by using the Arclink service.

Obspy offers another easy way to access the waveforms and the metadata of our archive.

SeismicHandler SHX This is a new version of the well proven SeismicHandler software package from Klaus Stammler.

Station Service (Inventory, Metadata)

This webservice provides access to full metadata from all of our EIDA stations. Some examples:

Display a brief list for all stations belonging to networks GR,SX,TH,RN,BQ:
https://eida.bgr.de/fdsnws/station/1/query?format=text&level=station&network=GR,SX,TH,RN,BQ

Show channel-level info for station GRA1:
https://eida.bgr.de/fdsnws/station/1/query?format=text&level=channel&station=GRA1

Download a FDSNStationXML inventory file for station GEC2:
https://eida.bgr.de/fdsnws/station/1/query?formatted=true&level=channel&network=GR&station=GEC2

Fetch a full inventory for station RETH in Seiscomp3-XML format:
https://eida.bgr.de/fdsnws/station/1/query?formatted=true&format=sc3ml&level=response&network=GR&station=RETH

DataSelect Service (mseed Waveforms)

This webservice provides access to waveform data of our node. Networks GR, SX and TH are archived at BGR. Some examples:

Download Geress-Array data for a certain timewindow:
https://eida.bgr.de/fdsnws/dataselect/1/query?station=GE??&channel=SHZ&starttime=2014-01-01T12:00:00&endtime=2014-01-01T12:10:00

https://eida.bgr.de/fdsnws/dataselect/1/query?station=GRA2&channel=LH?&starttime=2015-11-27T00:00:00&endtime=2015-12-05T01:00:00

Example for using wget with POST method. We need an input file -- please save similar lines to file: request.txt

Software

Obspy supports fdsnws queries and so offers another easy way to access the waveforms and the metadata of our archive.

fdsnws_fetch allows distributed data requests querying all EIDA nodes. It is using the EIDA routing service.

Our seedlink service is available at eida.bgr.de:18000

Get waveforms in near real-time from our seismic and infrasonic stations. A software for fetching the data is seedlink from inside the Seiscomp3 environment.
A very useful tool from the Seiscomp3 suite is slinktool. To query which stations are available at a seedlink server, enter:
slinktool -L eida.bgr.de:18000

Download Seiscomp3 »

You may also try the java based programm seisgram2k from Anthony Lomax.

The Iris ringserver supports the Seedlink protocol and may be used to fetch the data.

There are several webservices under development by the EIDA community. For purposes of testing only, some examples are shown. The current status is highly experimental. Don't yet rely neither on continous operation nor on accuracy of output.

Routing Service

Replaces in future the EIDA master table. Provides info about at which EIDA node to query for specific waveform and metadata.

Where can I find data for e.g. station GE.SNAA ?
https://eida.bgr.de/eidaws/routing/1/query?network=GE&station=SNAA&starttime=1970-01-01&endtime=2030-12-31

WfCatalog Service

This webservice allows querying of waveform extended metadata, including QC, from a selection of our EIDA stations. An example:

Download QC information for GRSN station GR.GRA1 in JSON format:
https://eida.bgr.de/eidaws/wfcatalog/1/query?starttime=2016-11-01&endtime=2016-11-23&network=GR&station=GRA1

Mediator Service

Combining this all into one -- for your convenience !

AlpArray Data Availability

We used to distribute data from about 45 seismic stations of the AlpArray Initiative.
Now the data is available from LMU EIDA node.
