Station Monitor

As an electronics engineer (now retired), I once had a job maintaining and engineering seismic observatories. At the time, I had daily access to the inner workings of seismometers, both long and short period instruments, their installation, operation, and calibration being part of my daily job. Being very familiar with their output, I am pleased to see actual data freely available, presented in a format that really hasn’t changed in over 50 years. Outstanding!

It lets you see Seismic data at thousands of Seismic recording stations around the world using an easy map and colorful icons with Seismic traces and full day webicorder plots, so that you can see if an earthquake you felt or heard about pn the news was recorded or felt nearby to you. I really like it. simple gets the job done. Educational.

Snappy interface and easy-to-use layout make this a great tool for exploring seismic data from stations near and far. Perfect for science education or for your average seismo-geek.

This app shows the information that I’m looking for. The only issue that I have with it is that some stations that I know are nearby do not appear, and they do not appear when searched for by name. (Example: the station KLNK, which is on the IRIS network on the website does not appear, and it is nearby to me)

App is great. Easy to use. My only requests would be to add a share feature or add a feature where you can save your favorite stations.
