The IRIS Data Management Center • Most of the 120 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 • 267 permanent seismic networks • 469 temporary deployments • 14,264 stations • 1,997 stations in 91 networks in real time as of 2010
Regional Exchange of Earthquake Data (REED) • Focus on solving data communication issues • Station to data center • Cellular modems • Radio modems • Data center to Internet • Fiber installation • Data tariffs • Past efforts • Central Asia • SW Pacific Tsunami Task Group • Can the REED effort help your networks
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
