Stations WQSZ WMSZ WPSZ WDSZ WTSZ - Alpine Temp experiment - data metadata hosted by IRIS/Geonet -actions #101

Open salichon opened 2 years ago

salichon commented 2 years ago

Place holder to have a discussion with VUW @calum-chamberlain et al.

Context and information required prior to action to complete or amend the GeoNet repos.

1- Is WQSZ part of the 6F experiment and should it be transfered to IRIS likewise?

2- When all the data/meta are complete we shall agree about the local archive and actions against it at Geonet wrt to these temporary experiments as per policies when hosted by IRIS securely.

thanks ! cheers

  1. I believe that WQSZ was renamed from WHAT2 by GeoNet, but we (and IRIS) have retained the WHAT2 name.

Not sure I can answer 2! Thanks for thinking about this Jerome.

Kia Ora @calum-chamberlain from the IRIS side of the thing : https://service.iris.edu/fdsnws/station/1/query?net=6F&level=station&format=text no WHAT2 in the 6F but the 9F network

a bit of a case.

in delta : WQSZ,SP,Whataroa Quarry,-43.2792,170.3604,96,,WGS84,2014-06-23T00:00:05Z,9999-01-01T00:00:00Z (and still opened) WHAT2 9F was closed in 2020.

This WQSZ/WHAT2 is something that we shall work on to get the right references and information for data and metadata to one or the other DMCs

Kia ora Jerome, yes that is right WHAT2 was always part of the SAMBA network (9F), and has been since ~2008. We have not been allowed to set an open end-date in IRIS for our "temporary" networks, but we retain the SAMBA (9F) sites. We plan on updating those data and metadata at IRIS in the next few weeks while we archive as much of our VUW hosted data as we can.

I would close the WQSZ station at the last date that you have data for it. We will archive data from that site to IRIS, not to GeoNet.

Hi @calum-chamberlain,

I am looking to complete our sensor orientation dataset and WMSZ, WPSZ, WTSZ, WDSZ all have unknown orientations in our metadata.

In the simplest case, we could update the orientations for these (if known, or calculate them if not).

However, if the data are hosted by IRIS and the metadata are also complete with IRIS or another third party, it is necessary to ask whether GeoNet should have these data (and for WQSZ) in its data/metadata archive. I appreciate this is a heavy question, but do these data need to be in GeoNet's archive, or can they be accessed elsewhere by all those who would need to access them?

To add complexity, if GeoNet owns the data at all, and it is not entirely VUW's, then this question becomes moot and we will want to complete the data/metadata archive for the sites. Ergo, my first question...

calum-chamberlain commented 2 years ago

Kia ora @staylorofford - I think that the orientations of these sensors are now known thanks to some of the work that John Townend emailed you about. Hopefully we can find out more from Carolin Boese when she gets back to John.

I'm unsure about what data are available where, and it would be best to do a check of data availability between IRIS and GeoNet. We do not plan on archiving more data from these stations to GeoNet though, and would put the data at the IRIS DMC.

In terms of ownership, that question would have to go to John who oversaw the deployment. As far as I know only the comms system during real-time monitoring was owned by GeoNet.
