I'm thrilled to announce the first release of `seismutils` - an innovative, open-source Python toolkit designed specifically for seismology professionals. The mission with is to empower you to enhance your productivity and streamline your workflows like never before.
With a sharp focus on simplicity and efficiency, `seismutils` offers an intuitive suite of tools for the manipulation, visualization, and analysis of seismic data.
🚀 Release features
`seismutils.geo`:
- `convert_to_geographical()`: Easily convert UTM coordinates to geographical coordinates (latitude and longitude), simplifying data integration from various sources.
- `convert_to_utm()`: Seamlessly convert geographical coordinates back to UTM coordinates, facilitating a wide range of geospatial analyses.
- `cross_sections()`: Dive deep into earthquake data with the ability to analyze and, if desired, plot cross sections around a specified central point. This feature is invaluable for understanding the orientation and position of seismic events relative to geological strikes.
- `select()`: Efficiently select and, optionally, plot a subset of data within a specific geometric shape centered at a given point. This tool is perfect for focusing on data that matters most to your analysis.
`seismutils.signal`:
- `envelope()`: Calculate and optionally plot the envelope of one or multiple signals, offering insights into signal characteristics at a glance.
- `filter()`: Apply sophisticated filtering techniques to your signals, with optional tapering, to isolate the data you need without the noise you don’t.
- `fourier_transform()`: Unlock the power of Fourier Transforms for your signals, with the option to visualize the spectra. This function is essential for analyzing signal frequencies and making informed decisions based on your data.
📣 Getting involved
As this is the first release, I warmly welcome your feedback, suggestions, and contributions. Your input is invaluable in making `seismutils` more robust, feature-rich, and tailored to the needs of the seismology community.
🙏 Thank you
Thank you for trying out `seismutils`. Your support and feedback at this early stage are crucial to its success and evolution. I'm excited to be on this journey with you and look forward to hearing about your experiences with `seismutils`.
