<h1>Introduction<a class="headerlink" href="#introduction" title="Permalink to this heading"></a></h1>
<p>scanloc for <cite>SeisComP</cite> <span id="id1">[<a class="reference internal" href="references.html#id292" title="Helmholtz-Centre Potsdam - GFZ German Research Centre for Geosciences and gempa GmbH. The SeisComP seismological software package. GFZ Data Services. 2008. URL: https://www.seiscomp.de, doi:10.5880/GFZ.2.4.2020.003.">39</a>]</span> is optimzed for monitoring local and
micro seismicity within small as
well as large seismic monitoring networks in low and high seismicity environments.
Typical networks consist of 5 to 20 stations
and sometimes even many more were the station distances are in the range of
hundreds of meters to tens of kilometers.</p>
<p>scanloc makes use of the cluster search algorithm DBSCAN <span id="id2">[<a class="reference internal" href="references.html#id125" title="DBSCAN. Data clustering algorithm. URL: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DBSCAN.">2</a>]</span> to
associate detected seismic phases to one or many potential seismic events.
While the cluster search itself is based on P phases only, in a second step S
picks and more P phases are associated to better locate the event.</p>
<p>In order to provide high-quality picks from S phases, a new
<a class="reference internal" href="sphase-detector.html#scanloc-spicker"><span class="std std-ref">S-phase picker</span></a> is distributed
along with scanloc. The S picker allows to identify S phases on the horizontal
components or on the vertical components if the horizontals should be unavailable.
A <a class="reference internal" href="sphase-detector.html#scanloc-spick-debugger"><span class="std std-ref">user-friendly debugger GUI</span></a> allows the interactive
tuning of the S picker configuration parameters based on waveforms.</p>
<p><a class="reference internal" href="auxiliary.html#sec-scanloc-aux-tools"><span class="std std-ref">Additonal auxiliary tools</span></a> ship with the scanloc
package to support detailed tuning and realistic playbacks.</p>
<section id="applications">
<h2>Applications<a class="headerlink" href="#applications" title="Permalink to this heading"></a></h2>
<p>scanloc is a backbone module in <cite>SeisComP</cite> systems for many applications including</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li><p>Real-time monitoring of local and regional earthquakes,</p></li>
<li><p>Re-processing of historical data for more complete seismicity catalogs,</p></li>
<li><p>Monitoring of natural and induced seismicity in industrial environments e.g. at</p>
<ul>
<li><p>geothermal plants,</p></li>
<li><p>oil and gas production,</p></li>
<li><p>underground gas storages,</p></li>
<li><p>open and deep mines,</p></li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><p>Integration of <a class="reference internal" href="../apps/scanloc.html#scanloc-zero-weight"><span class="std std-ref">teleseismic events</span></a> detected by

<h2>Examples from science<a class="headerlink" href="#examples-from-science" title="Permalink to this heading"></a></h2>
<p>scanloc has been routinely applied, demonstrated, promoted and discussed with
scientists and the SeisComP community in scientific publications and at
international science conferences.</p>
