ObsPy is an open-source project dedicated to provide aPython framework for processing seismological data. It provides parsers for common file formats, clients to access data centers and seismological signal processing routines which allow the manipulation of seismological time series (seeBeyreuther et al. 2010,Megies et al. 2011,Krischer et al. 2015).

The goal of the ObsPy project is to facilitaterapid application development for seismology.

A one-hour introduction to ObsPy isavailable at YouTube.

Installation instructions can be found in thewiki.

Read about how to get started in thewiki and in ourTutorial section in the documentation.

ObsPy Tutorial notebooks -- and much more on specific seismology topics -- can also be found onSeismo-Live, both as a static preview and as interactively runnable version.
