Hello Webservice users,

The DMC has updated it's ws-timeseries service with new output  
options, no other functionality
was changed and the service is fully backwards compatible.

http://www.iris.edu/ws/timeseries/

Three new output options:

output=ascii1

   ASCII data in one column format.
   In this format the time of each data sample must be inferred from  
the first line which includes
   start time and sample rate

output=ascii2

   ASCII data in two column format.
   In this format the time of each data sample is given with the value  
of each sample.

   Note: this format was present in the previous revision but was  
known as simply "ascii".
   The output=ascii option has been retained. output=ascii is the same  
as output=ascii2

output=audio

   With this option ws-timeseries can produce WAV audio files for the  
sonification of earthquake data.
   There are two related options available with this output option:    
audiosamplerate,  audiocompress

   The audiosamplerate option will cause the audio output to be played  
at the given rate (Hz).

   The audiocompress option will apply a dynamic gain adjustment that  
tends to equalize the
   volume level of loud periods of time relative to quite periods of  
time.
