CSV event catalogue output
The CSV output for the event catalogue search is a one line per event output. Click here to load an example.
Each line has a minimum of 11 fields, which are preformatted and comma separated. Each field is in one of 3 groups:
EVENT, ORIGIN, MAGNITUDES
The fields within the MAGNITUDES group are repeated for each magnitude that is returned for an event.
| Group | Title | Position | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
EVENT | EVENTID | 1-9 | Unique id number specific to each ISC event. |
EVENT | TYPE | 11-12 | Event type. |
ORIGIN | AUTHOR | 16-24 | Author of the prime (preferred) orgin. |
ORIGIN | DATE | 26-35 | Prime origin date. |
ORIGIN | TIME | 37-47 | Prime origin time. |
ORIGIN | LAT | 49-56 | Prime origin latitude. |
ORIGIN | LON | 58-66 | Prime origin longitude. |
ORIGIN | DEPTH | 68-72 | Prime origin depth. |
ORIGIN | DEPFIX | 74-79 | Flag set to true if the depth has been fixed in the prime origin. |
MAGNITUDES | AUTHOR | 81-89 | Magnitude author. |
MAGNITUDES | TYPE | 91-96 | Magnitude type (e.g. MW, mb, MS, etc.) |
MAGNITUDES | MAG | 98-101 | Magnitude value. |
Event type*:
uk = unknown de = damaging earthquake ( Not standard IMS ) fe = felt earthquake ( Not standard IMS ) ke = known earthquake se = suspected earthquake kr = known rockburst sr = suspected rockburst ki = known induced event si = suspected induced event km = known mine explosion sm = suspected mine explosion kh = known chemical explosion ( Not standard IMS ) sh = suspected chemical explosion ( Not standard IMS ) kx = known experimental explosion sx = suspected experimental explosion kn = known nuclear explosion sn = suspected nuclear explosion ls = landslide
* please note this is not every possible reported type
