Nominal Response Library

In 2006, the IRIS DMC began to collect an "authoritative" set of manufacturers' recommended nominal instrument responses in SEED RESP format and publish these on the web. The goal behind the Library is to make it easier for the seismological community to both share and create metadata for common instrumentation, and to improve response accuracy for users of the data. All links to responses are queries to the NRL web service.

The user may select the maximum full scale measurement range of +/-4g, +/-2g, +/-1g, +/0.5g +/-0.25g or +/-0.125g. This is applied to the internal Titan sensor, and so the Titan sensor response corresponding to the selected clip level should be used in conjunction with one of the digitizer responses below.
