The IRIS Data Management Center • Most of the 100 terabytes are in miniSEED format • Metadata has been provided in dataless SEED format • The huge holdings are consistent and complete due to adherence to FDSN standards • Data from • 102 different seismic networks • 12,007 stations • 1,920 stations in 73 networks in real time as of 2009
A Global Resource • The IRIS DMS is available to all seismologists at the same priority level • All data are open • There is no charge for any of IRIS services • Only one piece of software has limited distribution • Antelope only available to Full IRIS Members • SAC available to almost all seismologists
