Question
Is there a way to request data from Wilber without an event?
I want to investigate a local earthquake that is smaller (under the usgs publish threshold), there wouldn’t be an event page in which to follow a link to Wilber. Is there a way to request data for this event?
Answer
Yes, you can pass arbitrary event information to Wilber using query parameters.
Example: http://ds.iris.edu/wilber3/find_stations?latitude=46&longitude=242&time=2008-02-19T13:30:00
Required parameters:
latitude
(number between -90 and 90)longitude
(number between -180 and 180)time
(formatted as “yyyy-mm-dd” or “yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ss”)
Optional parameters
depth
(number, in km)magnitude
(number)type
(magnitude type, eg. “Mw”)description
The depth
parameter will affect calculated phase arrival times. The other optional parameters are only used for display.
