Station parameters dataframe/csv

Dataframe/.csv that is returned when save_stations in the input_parameters.yaml is set to true.

Variable Data type Units Description
station str none Name of station.
lat float degrees Latitude of the station.
lon float degrees Longitude of the station.
elevation float meters Elevation of the station.

Array processing dataframe/csv

Dataframe/.csv that is returned when save_events in the input_parameters.yaml is set to true.

Variable Data type Units Description
time str UTCDateTime Time of array processing. Time represents center of processing window.
relpow float ? Relative power of incoming signal. FK only.
abspow float ? Absolute power of incoming signal. FK only.
baz_obspy float degrees Array backazimuth returned by obspy (FK only). Backazimuth is in terms of degrees from north, but is -180 to 180 instead of 0-360.
array_slow float s/km Slowness returned from array processing.
baz_error float degrees Backazimuth error (catalog baz - array baz).
array_baz float degrees Backazimuth returned from array processing
slow_error float s/km Slowness error (catalog slow - array slow).
array_vel float km/s Trace velocity returned by array processing. Recall, trace velocity = 1/slow.
conf_int_vel float km/s 95% confidence interval of trace velocity. LS/LTS only.
conf_int_baz float degrees 95% confidence interval of backazimuth. LS/LTS only.
mdccm float ? Median of cross correlation maxima. LS/LTS only.
max_freq float Hz Max frequency used for bandpass filter.
min_freq float Hz Min frequency used for bandpass filter.
window_length float seconds Length of window for array processing.
window_start float seconds Start of window relative to the trigger time.
multiple_triggers str none Method chosen for handling multiple triggers in ptolerance window.
no_triggers str none Method chosen for handling no_triggers.
trigger_time str none Trigger time chosen in UTC Time.
trigger_type str none Type of trigger. Either Multiple triggers,Taup, or STA/LTA trigger.
sta/lta float none Median of signal to noise ratio peak next to trigger.
trigger_length float seconds How long the trigger was "On" before going below "Off" threshold.
num_stations int none Number of stations used for array processing.
array_lat float degrees Latitude of center of array.
array_lon float degrees Longitude of center of array.
event_id str none USGS event id of earthquake.
velocity_model str none Velocity model used for slowness calculation.
array_processing str none Array processing method used (FK, LS, LTS)
min_triggers int none Minimum number of stations needed to pick a phase to associate into a trigger.
depth float kilometers Depth of earthquake in kilometers.
magnitude float meters Magnitude of earthquake.
latitude float degrees Latitude of earthquake
longitude float degrees Longitude of earthquake
time_utc str none Origin time of earthquake in UTC.
time_ak str none Origin time of earthquake in AKST.
distance float kilometers Distance from array to earthquake epicenter.
backazimuth float degrees Backazimuth to catalog location.
array str none Name of array.
slowness float s/km Catalog slowness calculated from 1D velocity model and catalog location.
trace_vel float km/s Catalog trace velocity. Recall trace velocity = 1/slowness
incident_angle float degrees Incident angle of incoming wave as calculated by 1D velocity model.
p_arrival float seconds Expected p-arrival at station from 1D velocity model. Time is in seconds since earthquake origin time.
