seizmo's Issues

support for iris web access

IRIS has moved to web-based access. Need to provide functions that give an interface to that.

Benefits:
quick station, network, component info (location, orientation, instrumentation, response, etc)
data download

Seizmo functions with same name as built in MATLAB functions

Hello,

When I was installing seizmo, there were two function named after built in MATLAB functions that prevented me from installing at first: isstring and vecnorm. The following error comes up during installation and I think it is tied to isstring being called in readsacpz_rdseed but potentially is running the builtin isstring instead.

need function to sync sample timings between records

This is a commonly encountered issue (meld, rotate, rotate_correlations, rotate3, hodogram, etc). Having the code in one place will simplify these rather complex functions and make writing new ones far easier.

This should probably allow for:

• adjusting the timing but not the data
• interpolating new data in the time domain
• interpolating new data in the frequency domain

Actually, TD interp is better than FD interp for a few reasons:

• speed
• no ringing
• allows unevenly sampled

So the FD option should probably not be included (omegashift is a workaround).

meld doesn't work with unevenly sampled data

Meld (was merge) works well with evenly sampled recordings but will fail at merging unevenly sampled recordings. This should be as simple as a concatenation of the .dep & .ind fields followed by a unique on .ind to sort by time & drop time duplicates (or warn about them). Integrating it into the rather complex meld internals makes this a more difficult task.

This will also bring support for merging records sampled at different rates through an even to uneven conversion.

include datasets for examples

Examples/demos need small datasets included. Something like singleZEN.mat, arrayZ.mat, arrayNE.mat, & global.mat in a szdemos directory.

rotate_correlations only does N/E -> R/T conversion

rotate_correlations needs to support rotation of arbitrary orientations to RT or NE.

rotate needs a through option

Rotate only allows rotating to some azimuth. It needs a through option to rotate by a certain angle.

rotate only works with horizontals

Support for rotation in a vertical plane is needed and should not take much effort with current internals.

sacpz db is huge

Can we shrink it? It will get worse when the metadata from rdseed 5.X is parsed (requires sacpz read/write updates). We should support web-based access too! We update the db to include any updates found on the web for a specific dataset's metadata. Something like websacpzdb then a unique merge with sacpzdb.

need better 2/3/4 cmp support

2 cmp support for horizontals is good right now but the following are needed:

2 cmp support for vert + 1 horz
3 cmp support for vert + 2 horz
4+ cmp support for operations like rotate_correlations

no README

Add a simple README so people have a starting point.

miniseed support

Miniseed is widely used and supported. Unfortunately the format is quite complicated and required a large effort to understand and then write the m-code. Previous support required compilation of c-codes. Now François Beauducel has written mfiles available here:

http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/28803-read-and-write-miniseed-file

for both read & write!

These need to be included with current codebase to have miniseed support. Will require a mseed detection function and mseed<->seizmo functions.

bathymetric factors differ

Hi, Garrett, the data in the table for P bathymetric excitations in bathy_micro_excite look like Fig. 3c of Gualtieri et al. 2014 but the values are much higher, a peak of ~3.2 vs a peak of 1.9. Could you have a check?

Beside, what's the meaning of 'S-All' and what's the difference with 'S'?

include a startup file

Include a startup.m file for convenience.
