Reading

Importing SEISAN files is done similar to reading any other waveform data format within ObsPy by using the read() method of the obspy.core module. Example seismogram files may be found at https://examples.obspy.org.

>>> from obspy import read
>>> st = read("/path/to/2001-01-13-1742-24S.KONO__004")
>>> st  
<obspy.core.stream.Stream object at 0x...>
>>> print(st)  
4 Trace(s) in Stream:
.KONO.0.B0Z | 2001-01-13T17:45:01.999000Z - ... | 20.0 Hz, 6000 samples
.KONO.0.L0Z | 2001-01-13T17:42:24.924000Z - ... | 1.0 Hz, 3542 samples
.KONO.0.L0N | 2001-01-13T17:42:24.924000Z - ... | 1.0 Hz, 3542 samples
.KONO.0.L0E | 2001-01-13T17:42:24.924000Z - ... | 1.0 Hz, 3542 samples

The file format will be determined automatically. Each trace (multiple channels are mapped to multiple traces) will have a stats attribute containing the usual information.

>>> print(st[0].stats)  
             network:
             station: KONO
            location: 0
             channel: B0Z
           starttime: 2001-01-13T17:45:01.999000Z
             endtime: 2001-01-13T17:50:01.949000Z
       sampling_rate: 20.0
               delta: 0.05
                npts: 6000
               calib: 1.0
             _format: SEISAN

The actual data is stored as numpy.ndarray in the data attribute of each trace.

>>> print(st[0].data)
[  464   492   519 ..., -7042 -6960 -6858]
