An ObsPy Library for Event Detection and Seismic Attribute Calculation: Preparing Waveforms for Automated Analysis
We have implemented an extension for the observational seismology 'obspy' software package to provide a streamlined tool tailored to the processing of seismic signals from non-earthquake sources, in particular those from deforming systems such as glaciers and landslides. This 'seismic...
