SC_API_VERSION 12.0.0
Schema version 0.11

---

The ML amplitude calculation has changed because of a bug that existed in
previous versions. This bug caused a scaling of two for the zero-to-peak
amplitudes. This is fixed now and it results in ML magnitudes that are
log10(2) ~= 0.3 lower. If you want to preserve the former behaviour, apply a
magnitude correction. Note that it only affects ML, not MLv and not MLh.

---

• scevtstreams

  • Remove duplicate lines in output
  • Add capstool format for output
  • Add options for using wildcards instead of network, stations, streams codes

• scautoloc

  • Check the depth of the origin before sending to discard solutions with
    too great depth

  • Add configuration parameter maxDepth

  • Remove depth check from previous origin filter where it was not effective

  • Changes affecting behaviour in playback mode:

    • A time stamp is now logged whenever an new object arrives.
    • The creationTime of new origins is set to the creation
      time of the most recently received object.

    Both changes help to more realistically simulate and assess the real-time behaviour.

  • Fix bug that caused autoloc.useManualOrigins to always be treated
    as true

  • Fix bug that caused autoloc.useManualPicks to not be used as specified in
    config but rather always treated as false (causing this option to only work
    when calling scautoloc from command line with --use-manual-picks)

• scdumpcfg

  • Add the documentation

• bindings2cfg

  • Add the documentation

• trunk

  • Add namespace support in configuration files. Example:

    recordstream {
      service = slink
      source = localhost:18000
    }
    

    Namespaces can be nested.
  • Remov LocSAT unused configuration option to use the location rms as
    time error
  • Add LocSAT options defaultTimeError and usePickUncertainties
    which can be configured via the configuration files or during runtime in
    the scolv locator setup dialog. The latter defaults to false to preserve
    the old behaviour
  • Add ConfigSyncMessage which wraps a database configuration synchronization
  • All applications are now encouraged to use recordstream = service://params
    in their configuration rather than the two parameters recordstream.service
    and recordstream.source. They are now declared deprecated and will be
    removed in future versions.
  • All applications are now encouraged to use database = type://params
    in their configuration rather than the two parameters database.type
    and database.parameters. They are now declared deprecated and will be
    removed in future versions.
  • Fix amplitude computation for ML (on horizontals, not MLv) which applied
    a wrong correction factor of 2. Therefore ML magnitudes will be 0.3 magnitudes
    lower than before. To preserve the old (wrong) behaviour, apply a constant
    correction in the bindings:

    # Add log10(2) to ML magnitudes for SC3 compatibility with <= 2017.334
    mag.ML.offset = 0.301029995664
    

  • Add scardac module, see below

• fdsnws

  • Add FocalMechanism support in event query
  • Add support for cross-referenced preferred magnitude in event query
  • Add data availability support according to the IRIS webservice
    availability http://service.iris.edu/irisws/availability/1/ under
    path ext/availability
  • Fix memory leak which was caused by active request tracking

• fdsnxml2inv

  • Fix wrong datalogger conversion if commandline option --log-stages
    is not set

• GUI

  • Add event layer legend which will show if legends are visible in scolv
  • scmv uses now the map legend interface rather than rendering the legends
    as map symbols
  • Add support for BNA point rendering. New configuration options have
    been added: [{prefix}.]symbol.size and [{prefix}.]symbol.shape.
  • Show in scconfig header of module configuration if bindings are required
  • Fix event list "Hide events outside region" edit dialog: OK and Cancel
    did not work
  • Prepend "amax" and "mean" to the statistic values printed in the lower
    left corner in the trace widgets
  • Improve rendering of traces significantly when anti-aliasing is enabled
    which is default now
  • Improved optimizing traces for rendering with respect to correctness and
    memory consumption

• scheli

  • Add documentation and descriptions
  • Add option to configure a post processing script that is called after an image has
    been written to disc

• scmv

  • Add filter of origin mode and status for showing events on map
  • Add configuration for map/event legend position
  • Improve documentation

• scwfparam

  • Fix wrong handling of data acquisition timeouts when no data is received
    within one second
  • Compare inventory gain.unit ignoring the case to detect velocity and
    acceleration channels correctly

• scbulletin

  • In enhanced mode all coordinates and distances have precisions
    of e-05 degree

• scart

  • Change default archive path from $SEISCOMP_ROOT/acquisition/archive to
    $SEISCOMP_ROOT/var/lib/archive. Thanks to Sergio Tardioli.

• scqc

  • Fix duplicate object bug which caused many error log messages in
    scmaster.log with respect to database insertions

• scolv

  • Allow to configure preferred event types which will be displayed first
    in the event type drop-down list
  • Fix rename phases command when only a subset of source phases is selected
  • Show vertical scale in picker zoom trace
  • Set default for hiding disabled stations to false
  • Add configuration option to either ignore disabled stations or not
  • Allow to show all traces in the same unit, either acceleration, velocity
    or displacement
  • Add travel time table selection, as default libtau (iasp91 and ak135) and
    LocSAT (iasp91, tab) can selected
  • Fix synchronization of event type drop-down in event editor when the
    event type was changed through "With additional options" commit dialog
  • Add hotkey 't' to toggle showing all three components in the current
    trace widget or just the active component
  • Add checkbox to toggle spectrogram display between smooth and nearest neighbor

• scmm

  • Fix crash when connection cannot be established at startup

• scardac

  • Initial version of the module which collect availability information
    from an SDS archive by scanning its content repeatedly and populating
    the new availability database tables (read by fdsnws)
