USArray Update

The USRA machine is up and running and collecting data. We are currently receiving 46 Transportable Array stations from the CI, BK, and AZ regional nets, as well as USArray BackBone stations (US and IM networks.) The data are being archived by the standard DMC realtime data archiving system (BATS). Virtual Networks (see article in this newsletter) have been defined for the USArray components, providing data query access and monitoring.

The Incorporated Research Institutions for Seismology is a consortium of over 90 research institutions with major commitments to research in seismology and related fields. IRIS operates a facilities program in observational seismology and data management sponsored by the National Science Foundation through its Division of Earth Sciences.
