Pyrocko - The Other Seismology Toolbox in Python

Pyrocko is an open-source seismology toolbox and Python library available for Linux, Windows and Mac. It can be utilized for various geophysical tasks, like seismological data processing and modeling of seismic waveforms or displacement data from InSAR and GPS displacement data. At its core, Pyrocko is a library and framework providing building blocks for researchers and students wishing to develop their own applications and share them with the research community. Apart from fundamental functions for data reading, manipulation and writing, Pyrocko ships with an extensible seismogram browser and workbench, allowing convenient data handling in a graphical user interface.

Pyrocko contains standalone applications for everyday seismological practice, which we will present in an additional talk. This poster provides an overview of Pyrocko’s features and its extensive ecosystem, including, e.g., probabilistic source inversion (Grond / BEAT), seismic data quality control (AutoStatsQ), waveform-based clustering (Clusty), earthquake detection and location (Lassie) and source-specific station corrections (SCOTER). The poster intends to allow interested seismology students and researchers to meet contributors and users from the Pyrocko community in person at the conference.
