Step-by-step Instructions for Accessing NEPTUNE Canada Seismic Data in IRIS

IRIS is a consortium of over 100 US universities dedicated to the operation of science facilities for the acquisition, management, and distribution of seismological data. The following instructions show you how to see our seismic data on the IRIS website. (Step-by-step instructions in a PDF document)

Using the IRIS Link Builder

Network Information

The following illustrations show the builder screen I developed for each NEPTUNE Canada station that shows an October 21-22 event.

  • We often view the low-frequency (L) channels because they show all data (military screening does not happen for low frequency channels)
  • We also often use Z to view vertical movements, but you may also wish to view E (east-west movement) and N (north-south movement) data as well.

Station KEMF
