Web Services
The DMC offers several Common Service APIs to help you acquire data and metadata. These include:
Real time Streaming Service
Map Service
The IRIS DMC Google Map Service generator creates maps based on IRIS DMC metadata holdings. Either a network or single station map can be generated. Each map produced includes a link to the same data as a KML NetworkLink appropriate for Google Earth. Network and station parameters can be specified directly in the URI path.
Network Codes
The FDSN assigns network codes to provide uniqueness to seismological data streams.
