caching in dataselect and tracedsp
2012-09-25 18:17:55 - 2012-09-25 19:05:55
Hello. I am working on code that retrieves corrected traces from the DMC using the dataselect and tracedsp web services. I notice that a second retrieval of the same data is much, much faster, presumably because the data is being cached by the DMC web services. I am retrieving broadband 40Hz data in 60-hour increments. Do these web services cache more data than I ask for? Can I speed up my requests by either sequentially asking for data for the same channel (i.e., ask for 60 hours of BHZ for … [more]

All DMC web services offline during maintenance starting on Monday September 17th
2012-09-13 21:16:35 - 2012-09-21 19:19:47

station metadata text output problem
2012-09-20 19:59:28 - 2012-09-20 21:12:00
Hello all, I am looking at using the IRIS Station Web Service as a replacement for DHI. For station metadata I tried the StationXML output but the performance was very slow when many channels are required. The text output has excellent performance and it general works very well. However I noticed a problem with the station level text output for network IC station QIZ. http://www.iris.edu/ws/station/query?&output=text&level=sta&net=IC&starttime=2012-09-20T16:25:40.814 The information for netw… [more]

Hello web services users, The DMC has released a new version of ws-event (1.2.3). This version include all changes in the 1.2.2 beta release. http://www.iris.edu/ws/event/ http://www.iris.edu/ws/doc/event_help.htm This release is backwards compatible with the current production release with one notable behavior change: by default only the primary magnitude is returned for each event. Previously all magnitudes were returned for each event by default. Other changes include new text output f… [more]

default in bulkdataselect
2012-08-29 15:40:29 - 2012-09-04 20:50:37
Hi What are the default values for minimumlength and longestonly? I am guessing 0 and false, but the docs don't say. http://www.iris.edu/ws/bulkdataselect/ Also, have you found a performance increase with bulkdataselect over dataselect for large miniseed downloads? thanks Philip
