Q: I only want data from stations that are a certain distance from an event. How do I do that?A:
JWEED
Use JWEED software to select stations within a defined area.
JWEED is a Java tool that allows you to set very specific parameters for requesting event-related data. You can interactively explore the globe for events via the Data Handling Interface (DHI) and select stations seamlessly over the network.
The map tool in JWEED allows you to demarcate a minimum and maximum distance from an event, as well as azimuthal wedges to get just the stations you want. From there, you can extract data to JWEED via DHI for display or saving to files. You can also submit requests to NetDC and BREQ_FAST to get data in a more traditional fashion.
The JWEED tutorial covers how to use the map to select an area and map station locations. View the tutorial
