Abstract: Seismologists' tools of the trade are ever expanding as new
technology is adopted to efficiently analyze increasing amounts of
continuous data. Antelope is a system of modules designed to acquire,
distribute, archive and process environmental data. Boulder Real Time
Technology provides a free software license to US institutions of higher
education for research purposes and to streamline the acquisition and
archiving of seismic data. The talk will focus on how to use the Perl
and Matlab interfaces to forward seismic research. Specific examples are
culled from the speaker's experience recording and studying local
earthquakes using IRIS USArray/PASSCAL experiments. The tutorial will
focus on 1) how to use the Perl interface to reformat hypocenter data
for use in external packages, 2) how to integrate temporary network data
with EarthScope Transportable Array and regional seismic network data
using the Perl interface, and 3) how to use the Matlab interface to
expand on data processing capabilities.

This webinar is a follow-up to the 2012 webinar "Antelope and SAC: An
Overview and Short Tutorial from a User's Perspective"
