IRISSeismic (version 1.6.6)

TraceHeader-class: Class "TraceHeader"

Description

A container for metadata associated with a Trace object. Originally populated by information in the miniseed trace header; it now has the option of including additional station and channel metadata.

Objects from the Class

Objects can be created by calls of the form new("TraceHeader", headerList, headerLine, ...). The stats slot of a Trace object will contain a TraceHeader object, typically populated by a webservice request. (see IrisClient-class)

Methods

as.headerLine

signature(obj = "TraceHeader"): Prints out the information in the TraceHeader as an ascii header line, not including any station and channel metadata not found in the miniseed trace header, e.g.,

    TIMESERIES LD_POTS__HHZ_M, 351 samples, 100.503 sps, \
    2012-01-29T00:00:00.006000, SLIST, INTEGER, COUNTS

%%\item{initialize}{\code{signature(.Object = "TraceHeader")}: \strong{NOT YET WRITTEN} }

show

signature(object = "TraceHeader"): Prettyprints the information in the TraceHeader

Examples

if (FALSE) {
# Open a connection to IRIS DMC webservices
iris <- new("IrisClient")

starttime <- as.POSIXct("2012-01-24", tz="GMT")
endtime <- as.POSIXct("2012-01-25", tz="GMT")

# Get the waveform
st <- getDataselect(iris,"AK","PIN","","BHZ",starttime,endtime)

# Get the first trace and show the associated metadata
tr1 <- st@traces[[1]]
show(tr1@stats)
}
