Data format #137

Closed zhong-yy closed 2 years ago

zhong-yy commented 2 years ago

As is mentioned in #97, the the file naming format is NETWORK.STATION.LOCATION.CHANNEL__STARTTIMESTAMP__ENDTIMESTAMP.mseed. I am still confused about the name requirement.

(1) Can I put different channels at the same station into one mseed file? (2) Do traces in different channels at the same staion have to share the same name except for the CHANNEL part, even if traces at different channels have different starttime and endtime? (3) In the filename, are STARTTIMESTAMP and ENDTIMESTAMP important? I found that I could still run the example after I changed the ENDTIMESTAMP and ENDTIMESTAMP to a arbitrary time.

@zhong-yy 1) yes you can put the different channels in one messed file 2) I think no. 3) not really, maybe only in the association part

Anyway if you look at some downloaded examples from IRIS I think you'll get the answer to most of your questions.
