A simplified Python toolkit for earthquake catalogue manipulation and homogenisation
The toolkit consists of 12 main modules:
- Catalogue - The main module for database manipulation an I/O
- Parsers - Ad-hoc parsers for specific catalogues and bulletins (ISC, GCMT...)
- Selection - Functions for high-level manipulation of catalogue objects
- Exploration - Functions to explore database information and perform basic statistical analysis
- Regressor - Utilities for magnitude conversion and catalogue homogenisation
- Declusterer - Aftershock/Foreshock removal algorithms
- Seismicity - Functions to calculate occurence rates and fit magnitude-frequency distributions
- MagRules - Library of magnitude conversion functions
- MapTools - Utility to plot earthquake databases on a map
- Converters - Utility to convert to other formats
- IscWeb - API to download isf catalogues from the ISC web
- IscCode - ISC agency code list
