Classes

Amplitude This class represents a single amplitude measurement or a measurement of the visible end of a record for duration magnitudes.
Arrival Successful association of a pick with an origin qualifies this pick as an arrival.
Axis This class describes an eigenvector of a moment tensor expressed in its principal-axes system.
Catalog This class serves as a container for Event objects.
Comment Comment holds information on comments to a resource as well as author and creation time information.
CompositeTime Focal times differ significantly in their precision.
ConfidenceEllipsoid This class represents a description of the location uncertainty as a confidence ellipsoid with arbitrary orientation in space.
CreationInfo CreationInfo is used to describe author, version, and creation time of a
DataUsed This class describes the type of data that has been used for a moment-tensor inversion.
Event The class Event describes a seismic event which does not necessarily need
EventDescription Free-form string with additional event description.
FocalMechanism This class describes the focal mechanism of an Event.
Magnitude Describes a magnitude which can, but need not be associated with an Origin.
MomentTensor This class represents a moment tensor solution for an Event. It is part of
NodalPlane This class describes a nodal plane using the attributes strike, dip, and rake.
NodalPlanes This class describes the nodal planes of a double-couple moment-tensor solution.
Origin This class represents the focal time and geographical location of an earthquake hypocenter, as well as additional meta-information.
OriginQuality This type contains various attributes commonly used to describe the quality of an origin, e.g., errors, azimuthal coverage, etc.
OriginUncertainty This class describes the location uncertainties of an origin.
Pick This class contains various attributes commonly used to describe a single pick, e.g.
PrincipalAxes This class describes the principal axes of a double-couple moment tensor solution.
QuantityError
ResourceIdentifier Unique identifier of any resource so it can be referred to.
SourceTimeFunction Source time function used in moment-tensor inversion.
StationMagnitude This class describes the magnitude derived from a single waveform stream.
StationMagnitudeContribution This class describes the weighting of magnitude values from Magnitude
Tensor The Tensor class represents the six moment-tensor elements m_rr, m_tt,
TimeWindow Describes a time window for amplitude measurements.
WaveformStreamID Pointer to a stream description in an inventory.
