The Seismic Processing Centre includes up to 8 servers devoted to calculus, management of storage systems, data distribution, near real- time data acquisition and databases/web integration. Linux workstations, up to 285 Tb of disk space and dedicated processing software are available in the facility.
The Centre is able to receive and store in near-real time seismic data from temporary seismic stations and selected permanent sites.
Finally, the Seismic Processing Center features connectivity with the Barcelona Supercomputing Centre and has research relationships with other computation, processing, interpretation and modelling facilities such as GEO-MODELS (University of Barcelona) and the Barcelona Centre for Subsurface Imaging.
The Seismic Processing Center software includes academic, commercial and in house developments.
Among the available packages we can highlight:
| Claritas Seismic Processing Software developed by GlobeClaritas, New Zealand. | SAC The Seismic Analysis Code is a general purpose interactive program designed for the study of sequential signals, especially timeseries data. Emphasis has been placed on analysis tools used by research seismologists in the detailed study of seismic events. |
| SeisUnix Academic seismic processing software developed by the Colorado School of Mines. | PASSCAL is a general software for downloading, quality checking and format conversion of passive seismology data. |
| Opendtect Open Source Seismic Interpretation System developed by dGB Earth Sciences. | ObsPy Open-source project dedicated to provide a Python framework for processing seismological data. It provides parsers for common file formats and seismological signal processing routines which allow the manipulation of seismological time series. |
| FreeUSP is a collection of signal analysis and seismic processing routines originally written at Amoco Production Company’s Tulsa Research Center over the last nearly 40 years. This legacy is being offered in open source by BP America Inc. in the hopes that it may foster education, understanding and collaboration amongst the world wide signal analysis community. | Rayinvr Collection of programs for 2-D traveltime inversion and amplitude modeling. SeiSan is a seismic analysis system it is a complete set of programs and a simple database for analyzing earthquakes from analog and digital data. |
| SEPLIB The Stanford Exploration Project SEP included highly specialized software for migration imaging, velocity estimation, dip moveout and slant stack. Presently it is focus in developing 3-D seismic applications such as velocity estimation, wavefield-continuation prestack migration, multidimensional image estimation, and 4-D (time-lapse) reservoir monitoring. | CWBquery Repository for seismic waveform data. |
| PETREL The Schlumberger Petrel E&P Software Platform helps increase reservoir performance by improving asset team productivity. Geophysicists, geologists, and reservoir engineers can develop collaborative workflows and integrate operations to streamline processes. | SeisComp Seismological software for data acquisition, processing, distribution and interactive analysis that has been developed by the GEOFON Program at Helmholtz Centre Potsdam, GFZ German Research Centre for Geosciences and gempa GmbH. |
| Madagascar Open-source software package for multidimensional data analysis and reproducible computational experiments | Apollo Project Advanced data archive developed by Nanometrics application that ensures that all data are included in the archive in the format of choice. |
| PQLX Open-source software authored by Richard Boaz for evaluating seismic station performance and data quality. |
