EventType

evtype plugin for scevent

Description

The evtype pluging sets the type of an event based on comments of picks which are associated to the preferred origin of this event. The IDs of the comments from which the comment values are considered must be configured by eventType.pickCommentIDs and the name of the plugin, evtype, must be added to the plugins parameter. The text of the considered comments must contain a supported event type.

Note

Other criteria for setting the event type may be added later to this plugin.

Example of a pick comment:

<pick publicID="20160914.075944.29-deepc-AB.XYZ..HHZ">
  ...
  <comment>
    <text>earthquake</text>
    <id>deepc:eventTypeHint</id>
  </comment>
  ...
</pick>

Example configuration (scevent.cfg):

plugins = evtype

eventType.setEventType = true
eventType.pickCommentIDs = scrttv:eventTypeHint, deepc:eventTypeHint
