Seismic Data

Seismic data holdings pertaining to all components of USArray, SAFOD, and PBO can be found at the IRIS Data Management Center (DMC). All USArray data receive quality control at the IRIS Data Management Center (DMC), the Array Network Facility (ANF), the Array Operations Facility (AOF), or a Data Collection Center of the USGS in Albuquerque or Golden. Additionally, the IRIS DMC runs a suite of algorithms against all data arriving at the DMC in real time. In some cases, these algorithms are good indicators of data quality.

Near-real-time seismic data from SAFOD

Near-real-time seismic data from SAFOD are available via an online cache, Data Available in Real Time (DART, http://www.ncedc.org/dart), prior to official archiving. In addition, the NCEDC maintains a separate multi-terabyte online copy of recent continuous high sample rate for researchers interested in exploring this unique data set.
