Seismic Waveform/Frequency Data - How to find and access it to monitor volcanoes and faults
Channel: Ben Ferraiuolo
Date: 2019-04-20

Please utilize the parts sections below if this video is too long for you. This video will teach you how to find and access seismic waveform/frequency data. This is done so you can monitor volcanoes and faults from the comfort of your own home! Finding and accessing seismic data is the first thing you must learn before analyzing it. But don’t worry! Once you get the hang of it, it is extremely quick and easy. However actually understanding the events you see is a little more difficult. Don’t forget to check out the links!

Parts:
00:01 – Intro
03:22 – The 4 seismic codes you need to know
09:02 – IRIS Gmap tool helps you find stations/Finding networks you need
12:41 – Gmap tool also shows all 4 codes you need
15:57 – IRIS DataSelect data download site
