obspy.core.event - Classes for handling event metadata¶
This module provides a class hierarchy to consistently handle event metadata. This class hierarchy is closely modelled after the de-facto standard format QuakeML.
Note
For handling additional information not covered by the QuakeML standard and how to output it to QuakeML see the ObsPy Tutorial.

Classes & Functions¶
| catalog.Catalog | This class serves as a container for Event objects. |
| event.Event | The class Event describes a seismic event which does not necessarily need |
| origin.Origin | This class represents the focal time and geographical location of an earthquake hypocenter, as well as additional meta-information. |
| magnitude.Magnitude | Describes a magnitude which can, but does not need to be associated with an origin. |
| origin.Pick | A pick is the observation of an amplitude anomaly in a seismogram at a specific point in time. |
| magnitude.Amplitude | This class represents a quantification of the waveform anomaly, usually a single amplitude measurement or a measurement of the visible signal duration for duration magnitudes. |
| source.FocalMechanism | This class describes the focal mechanism of an event. |
| source.MomentTensor | This class represents a moment tensor solution for an event. |
