Outline of the talkOutline of the talk
• Data received and processed at the IDC
• Infrasound processing at the IDC
• Goals and motivations for improvement of the system
• Case studies
• Problems in the processing of infrasound data at the IDC

Incorporation of new IMS stations in IDC processingIncorporation of new IMS stations in IDC processing
• IDC is using two processing pipelines in parallel• Operations: automatic and interactive analysis performed on a daily
basis - generates the IDC products for distribution• Testbed: mirror of Operations used as a testing environment (software
development, software configuration, integration of new stations in the processing)
• In 2001, IDC is processing the data from 6 IMS infra stations• IS07 (Australia): September 2001 (Testbed), October 2001 (Operations)• IS08 (Bolivia): August 2001 (Testbed), November 2001 (approved for
ops)• IS10 (Canada): September 2001 (Testbed), October 2001 (Operations)• IS26 (Germany): April 2001 (Testbed), October 2001 (Operations)• IS34 (Mongolia): August 2001 (Testbed)• IS57 (USA): October 2001 (Testbed)

Goals and motivationsGoals and motivations
• Improvement of the know-how in infrasound processing• Need for a better understanding of the signals
Establishment of a catalog of reference events
A few case studies presented in this talk
• Becoming familiar with the latest methods in infrasound processingAssessment of existing tools used at the IDC
New developments in infrasound signal processing
(in 2001, cooperation with French NDC: PMCC is being tested at the IDC)
• Station tuning• Currently at the IDC: standard configuration used for all stations• Need to include station specifics in the processing
Assessment of the detection capability for each station

• Low and irregular number of detections observed for all infrasound stations processed at the IDC

Problems with data processing at the IDCProblems with data processing at the IDC (Cont.)(Cont.)
• Asynchronous Testbed and Operations pipelines• Data is forwarded from ops to Testbed in near real time• Data is organized in time intervals of 30min for infra• Intervals are scheduled for processing when they contain a sufficient
amount of data– Problem 1: Intervals are processed in near real time: all data needed may
not be available for use at the time it is processed– Problem 2: Interval generation and execution is asynchronously done on
ops and Testbed
• Consequences for the detection process:• Ops and Testbed may process different data• Ops and Testbed may produce different detections

SummarySummary
Infrasound signal analysis is a difficult exercise: collection of reference events is necessary • To increase the experience and knowledge in signal processing and
event recognition• Familiarization with the detection capability of IMS stations • First step before starting a comprehensive station tuning
Assessment of the analysis tools:• Existing automatic system (detection/association)• PMCC interactive tool for signal analysis
Problem of low number of detections produced at the IDC• Related to the software• Related to the configuration parameters (tuning)• Related to the data
