We are now providing nightly packages for SeisComP allowing you to download bleeding-edge software packages without compiling yourself. All new features of SeisComP3 have been finally merged into the last release. Therefore, we do not continue to provide nightly builds for SeisComP3 as of release Jakarta 2020.330.

In SeisComP 4.5.0 we have simplified the increasingly complex configuration of magnitudes. However, some configurations must be adjusted by you. Other parameters in the global and scautoloc module configurations were changed in earlier SeisComP 4 minor versions. Read the Changelog of SeisComP 4.5.0 for all details.

CentOS8 will be discontinued by RedHat but gempa continues to support RHEL and renamed it’s software repositories from centos to rhel.
The CentOS team recently announced the switch from CentOS to CentOS Streams:

The M6.4 event hit Croatia near Petrinja on 29 December, 2020 at 11:20 UTC (12:20 local time). The event was a shallow strike-slip event consistent with the local morphology explaining the reported large destruction of the nearby area.
Oct 13, 2020 · Training
Online trainings have proven a successful replacement of our regular onsite trainings on SeisComP which could not be held with the current restrictions due to the Covid-19 virus.

First some statistics for all changes and bugfixes :
794 files have changed, with 72798 insertions and 31008 deletions.
We have released the SeisComP3 in the new version Jakarta-2018.327. For that release many new and valuable features have been added including a major rework of the phase picker in scolv and the new ability to monitor waveform archives for the first time. Other modules have received optimizations or documentations to increase their usability. The database schema upgrades to version 0.11. Very important: ML has been corrected.

NASA’s InSight mission successfully landed on the Elysium plain today will bring modern seismology to planet Mars and SeisComP3 is part of this enterprise. In collaboration with ETH Zurich , Switzerland, we have developed a comprehensive graphical user interface (GUI) based on SeisComP3 to assist the earthquake monitoring. The GUI will be used by the Marsquake Service, an InSight project team led by ETH Zurich , Switzerland, to identify signals from earthquakes or meteoroid impacts, to locate the sources based on just one 3-component instrument and to identify signals worth downloading at high sample rates. Using just one seismometer in this harsh environment poses a great challenge to hardware and software engineers and seismologists.

The large tsunami locally observed in the city of Palu, Indonesia on 28 September was triggered after the M7.5 earthquake to the North of the city but the large wave heights seem to be generated by a non-tectonic source.

Our totally refreshed EQInfo in version 2.0.0 keeps you up-to-date and alerts you about the latest earthquakes. EQInfo shows maps and table of earthquakes and live seismograms from RaspberryShake seismographs. You can create and share your own felt reports about earthquakes or read the reports from others. The App provides collects earthquake information from various earthquake monitoring centers as GFZ, EMSC, USGS and others. If you are running your own earthquake service we can also add you to keep your stakeholders updated. EQInfo allows you to filter earthquake information by agency, region and magnitude as well as to control update interval, institute priority and alarm types.

First some statistics for all changes and bugfixes :
We have removed 144549 and added 329135 lines of code. In total 1388 files were changed. 50% of those numbers are related to the generation of the Python wrappers with Swig. Another big chunk is related to the update of 3rd party libraries such as libbson 1.7.0 and Spread 4.4.0

The strong M7.1 earthquake near Mexico City is likely to cause severe damage. The event was fully automatically detected and located by our automatic SeisComP3 system only 5 minutes and 21 seconds after the event occurred. Like the M8.1 quake just a few days ago on 08 September 2017 this new event shows normal faulting. The mechanism can be easily and uniquely determined by inverting body, surface and W-phase waves. The centroid seems to be located at around 50 km depth. Here we are using our AUTOMT and MTV modules. The AUTOMT module has automatically determined the earthquake source mechanism only 16 minutes after the event. High peak ground acceleration (PGA) and seismic intensities (MMI) are predicted by modeling using our new SIGMA module for Seismic Intensity and Ground Motion Analysis.

We have simulated the tsunami wave heights and observed an unusual source mechanism for the M8.1 earthquake in the Pacific off-coast Mexico on 08 September, 2017. The full suite of SeisComP3 and gempa modules including TOAST and AUTOMT/MTV were applied to analyze this exceptional event. Modeling PGA and MMI for the region by our upcoming module SIGMA for Seismic Intensity and Ground Motion Analysis we demonstrate the extreme ground motions that have effected large areas of Mexico and Guatemala.

The Thailand Meteorological Department, TMD , in Bangkok is establishing a new warning and monitoring center for tsunamis and local earthquakes. We have provided and installed SeisComP3 and many of our popular gempa modules and trained the staff at TMD.

At SnT2017 in Vienna we have presented our well-proven software developments for real-time monitoring of local, regional and teleseismic earthquakes, tsunami early warning, volcano observation and structural health monitoring. We enjoyed meeting many of our highly-appreciated customers and met even more scientists and operators who became newly interested in our well-proven monitoring solutions. All this was demonstrated at a live SeisComP3 system with all our gempa modules. We shared our booth in the wonderful Marmorsaal of the Hofburg Palace in Vienna with gempa Geoservices and OSOP giving you the unique chance to try out the popular RaspberryShake and Sixaola short-period seismometers and infrasound sensors together with SeisComP3.
