Thread: Evolution of the miniSeed format - Meeting at the EGU
Tim Ahern
Greetings
You are receiving this email because you are a manufacturer of seismic data acquisition systems, a member of FDSN WGII on formats, on the FDSN executive committee or someone closely involved with equipment within IRIS. Fee free to share this email with others you think would be interested.
IRIS, along with its partners in the FDSN, are organizing a meeting to discuss the future of the time-series portion of the SEED format, namely miniSeed.
As the metadata portion of SEED is changing from dateless SEED to StationXML, it is necessary to consider necessary or desirable changes to the time series portion of SEED as well.
The purpose of this meeting is to get FDSN member networks and manufacturers of seismic acquisition equipment in a meeting where different perspectives can be shared and begin first steps toward a new definition of the time series portion of SEED format. It is important for manufacturers to provide input into this process since many manufacturers produce miniSeed formatted data in the datalogger or through software processing systems external to the data logging process. This meeting will serve as a starting point and it is intended to then follow a standard Request for Comment (RFC) approach as the dialogue continues.
As many of you will be at the EGU in Vienna from April 17-22, 2016 we would like to include all interested parties in the meeting.
Please forward this email to others within your organization or more broadly to groups you think may be interested in participating.
If you or someone in your organization will attend please reply to this email (gale<at>iris.washington.edu <gale<at>iris.washington.edu> and tim<at>iris.washington.edu <tim<at>iris.washington.edu>) with
Your Name, Organization, number coming from you organization and position within the organization and we will add you to the list of interested parties.
We do not yet have a time or a room reserved as we are waiting to see how many people express an interest in attending.
Please respond by 26 February 2016 at which time we will determine the meeting time and place.
Regards
Cheers

Tim,
I am very interested in participating in this discussion, but will not
be able to attend the EUG meeting.
The other point I would like to make is that I have seen no proposal
to replace the metadata portion of SEED with stationXML.
If this is the goal, I believe that a proposal to this effect
should be submitted for discussion to the FDSN. I don't disagree
that this is a logical progression, but if SEED is a standard,
it should change by a standards process. My understanding is
that the FDSN has adopted stationXML as a metadata format, but NOT as
a SEED format. Perhaps this is just semantics...
Perhaps you can clarify this.
Thanks.

Hi Doug, from my perspective I think it is semantics. I think the general sense of the FDSN is that the dateless construct is too confining and that StationXML will evolve to a richer format that will ultimately
become the standard for metadata within the FDSN. Version 1.0 is really just dateless but a step toward the next, more complete and richer versions, Others can chime in if they see that differently but that is my perspective.
On another point you’re raising is that any member of the FDSN or its working groups can begin discussions they are interested in and I encourage you to do so. I am just a member of WGII and interested in the t9pic in the original email.

Tim,
thank you for taking this initiative. To start a discussion about the future of SEED is important
and I consider this upcoming, informal meeting as a first step to make an inventory of current
issues and to think about possible future solutions. However, this meeting will have to have an informal
character since it is announced only short before the EGU. But it may be a good starting point for further
discussion through the WGII mailing list.
From ORFEUS Data Center both Luca Trani and myself are aiming at participating if it does not
clash with other planned meetings.
Best regards,
Reinoud, Luca
