sampleRateChannelMetric {IRISMustangMetrics}

Sample rate consistency between miniSEED and metadata

Description

The sampleRateChannelMetric() function compares the miniSEED sample rate with the sample rate stored in the metadata channel.

Usage

sampleRateChannelMetric(st,
                 channel_pct=1,
                 chan_rate=NULL)

Arguments

st

a Stream object containing a seismic signal

channel_pct

percentage by which the miniSEED and channel sample rates must agree to be considered a match

chan_rate

metadata channel sample rate from miniSEED blockette 52, stationXML, or other metadata representation <Channel:SampleRate> element, optional

Details

This function retrieves the sample rate of the first trace from a Stream object and compares it to the metadata channel sample rate passed as chan_rate to see whether both sample rates agree within channel_pct percent. If chan_rate is not provided, the code will retrieve a sample rate from IRIS web services.

The sampleRateChannelMetric function calculates and returns the following metrics:

sample_rate_chan – "agreement between daily miniSEED and metadata channel sample rates"

A boolean measurement that returns 0 if miniSEED and Channel sample rates agree within 1%, or 1 if they disagree.

Value

A list of lists is returned containing:

• m1 = list of sample_rate_channel metric objects
