_read_y(filename, headonly=False, **kwargs)[source]

Reads a Nanometrics Y file and returns an ObsPy Stream object.

Warning

This function should NOT be called directly, it registers via the ObsPy read() function, call this instead.

Parameters:

filename (str) – Nanometrics Y file to be read.
headonly (bool, optional) – If set to True, read only the head. This is most useful for scanning available data in huge (temporary) data sets.

Return type:

Stream

A ObsPy Stream object.

Example

>>> from obspy import read
>>> st = read("/path/to/YAYT_BHZ_20021223.124800")

>>> print(st)
