2009 Metadata Workshop

Managing Waveform Data and Related Metadata for Seismic Networks

The Incorporated Research Institutions for Seismology (IRIS) Data  
Management System (DMS) and the ORFEUS Data Centre are organizing a  
workshop focused on the management of metadata and time series data  
from seismological networks. The goal is to enable open data sharing  
and exchange of ideas between networks in the focus area as well as  
with the broader global seismological community.

This workshop is a major attempt to share experience and expertise in  
seismological data management. It is directed at managers and  
operators of seismic networks. We shall provide training in the  
application of advanced database management systems, educate  
participants on the scientific developments that form the basis of  
modern seismometry, and give a short introduction to modern methods of  
analysis possible with the current advanced instrumentation and  
databases. We expect participants to come away from the workshop with  
all the necessary knowledge to set up and maintain their own database  
and to link their network to the growing global network for data access.
