Changelog Release Jakarta 2015.040

WARNING: Due to a fixed bug in the amplitude calculation if deconvolution is enabled the processing of amplitudes introduces now a delay of 60s unless configured otherwise. Background: the default cosine taper time window length has been left unchanged for now and is still 60s at either side. To not affect the signal time window the taper must start at signal end and thus 60s more data are required. That is usually not necessary and too much. Upcoming releases will set the default to 5s but for now it is 60s. The configuration of "amplitudes.[type].resp.taper" in global bindings can fix it. As an override the following changes can be applied to global.cfg:

module.trunk.global.amplitudes.ML.resp.taper = 5.0
module.trunk.global.amplitudes.MLv.resp.taper = 5.0
module.trunk.global.amplitudes.MLh.resp.taper = 5.0
module.trunk.global.amplitudes.mb.resp.taper = 5.0
module.trunk.global.amplitudes.mB.resp.taper = 5.0
module.trunk.global.amplitudes.Mwp.resp.taper = 5.0

seiscomp

• Refuse to run as root unless "--asroot" is passed

   $ sudo seiscomp help
   [sudo] password for sysop:
   Running seiscomp as root is dangerous. Use --asroot if you know what you are doing
   $ sudo seiscomp --asroot help
   Available commands:
     install-deps
     setup
     ...

VS

• Fixed installation of VsMag Python libraries if wrappers are disabled

scvsmaglog

• ActiveMQ messages can now be sent using either the QuakeML, SeisComP3ML, or ShakeAlertML format. This allows to use both the ShakeAlert UserDisplay (developed at Caltech) and the EEWD to receive real-time messages from VS in SeisComP3
• Event ID added to the email subject
• Additional configuration options enable operating several instances of scvsmaglog

scenvelope

• The default message group for envelope messages is now AMPLITUDE. Adding the message group VS is therefore no longer needed.

scvsmag

• Fixing a bug in reading Vs30 files for amplitude correction (thanks Palmi Erlendsson for spotting it!)
• Fixing a bug in magnitude computation: the proxy for the frequency content of the earthquake signal is now taken into account in MVS.
• Fixing a bug in the computation of the pick rate
• The computation of the likelihood quantifying the quality of the VS alert has been slightly modified (see documentation of scvsmag for details)
• The azimuthal gap is used as an additional quality criterion
• VS envelope messages are now received by default from the message group AMPLITUDE

ud_interface

• Use xslt files to format AMQ messages

Trunk

• Added default port 80 to FDSN Webservice RecordStream
• Made Helmberger format with 10 component files work with Green's functions
• Removed gain correction (if gain was defined outside the target frequency of interest) and rely on operator to define reasonable Gains in inventory files
• Added BOOST link and include directories if installed in a non standard location to projects missing that entries
• Fixed compilation of GUI tree if boost is installed in non-standard location
• Added "no-batch" option to Seedlink recordstream to connect to Seedlink servers that do not support BATCH requests
• Fixed Seedlink connection with respect to reconnect that caused restart of the entire request
• Fixed mapping to event type 'other' in QuakeML converter
• Removed StationXML support which is superseded by FDSNXML
• Create more database indexes as suggested by Fabian Engels
• LocSAT: take weight into account when locate with a picklist
• Allow to configure usage of responses per amplitude type
• Clip MLv and Ms(BB) time window to given signalEnd
• Added amplitude check for valid range if computing magnitudes
• Return correct status if distance is out of range for ML
• AmplitudeProcessor moved deconvolution cosine taper start to signal end to not damp the amplitudes

GUI

• Added scheme.precision.uncertainties description

scolv

• Show acquisition errors in a message box
• Added smart layout mode to focal mechanism map
• Group by agency for focal mechanisms
• Added option picker.ignoreUnconfiguredStations to add only stations that are configured with "detecStream" when adding stations in a certain range
• Added option to define picker alignment position: picker.alignmentPosition
• Set computeMissingTakeOffAngles to true by default
• Fixed crash when computing magnitudes
• Populate Pick.filterID with currently active filter
• Crash if raw data is shown in amplitude view and the time window is changed

hypo71

• Fixed bug when a pick has been deactivated in scolv
• Fixed "fixed depth" issue
• Removed OPTIONAL flag for Fortran compiler check if HYPO build is enabled

fdsnws

• Added hideAuthor config parameter

• Fixed combined analogue and digital filter chain, https://github.com/SeisComP3/seiscomp3/issues/10
• Avoid unnecessary array lookup

fdsnxml2inv

• Fixed order of response stages if pre-amp stages are used

scevtlog

• Fixed issue with duplicate magnitudes in XML files

scbulletin

• Added event type to format "-3"

• Reconnect to sink until connection can be established during init

scautopick

• Populate Pick.filterID with currently active filter

scevent

• Config parameters are float rather than int (Marc Grunberg)

scwfparam

• Use significant duration as processing time window scaled by optional durationScale parameter, replaced sensitivity correction filter by post-deconvolution filter
