Earthworm Version 3.91 has been released.
You can download the release from our new ftp site:
ghtftp.cr.usgs.gov/pub/OUTGOING/earthworm/release_v3.91
NEW MODULES
q2ew: module to convert data acquired by the Quanterra data loggers into
earthworm packets. The Quanterra data is imported into a Solaris machine via
the comserv program. The module q2ew interfaces to comserv and converts the
miniSEED packets to Earthworm trace_buf packets. Written by Paul Friberg & Sid
Hellman of ISTI.
ew2seisvole: Listens for hypo_sum messages, and produces files containing
cubic messages in a specified directory. Seisvole can be configured to retrieve
the cubic messages from the specified directory and display on it's maps. A
readme file can be found in the ew2seisvole source directory.
IMPORTANT BUG FIXES
carlstatrig: Fixed bug in addtrace.c where gapSize was calculated incorrectly.
This was causing the STA/LTA values to become NaNs (Not A Number) which
prevented triggers from that channel.
There have been many more bug fixes and enhancements to Earthworm modules with
v3.91. See the release notes which accompany the release for details.
IMPORTANT NOTICE TO ADSEND USERS
Earthworm module 'adsend' can freeze an NT system if restarted using the
Earthworm RESTARTME mechanism. We recommend you do not use this feature with
'adsend'.
CONTRIBUTED SOFTWARE
Many Earthworm modules have been developed at regional networks to meet their
specific needs. Since some of these may be useful to other networks, we make
these available at the Earthworm ftp site in the Contributed_software
directory. Currently, you will find modules developed at USGS Menlo Park,
University of Memphis, University of Washington and University of Alaska,
Fairbanks.
