E-mail Services


Automatic Data Request Managers

(requests of AutoDRM for earthquake data via e-mail)

The e-mail request, which is actually a short computer program, should be as follows:

BEGIN
DATE1 yyyymmddhhmm
DATE2 yyyymmddhhmm
DETEC
EMAIL your@e-mail.address
STOP

Suggestion - copy this script and paste it into your e-mail message. Then, make the necessary changes.

Information following DATE1 and DATE2 indicate the beginning and end of the period of interest; yyyy = year, mm = month, dd = day, hh = hour, mm = minute, all numeric, using universal time (GMT).

Send this message, with no subject line, to

autodrm@gldfs.cr.usgs.gov

Results of your request (detections of the U.S. National Seismograph Network) will be returned to you via e-mail, usually within a few minutes.

Complete guides (manuals) that explain additional request codes are available from the AutoDRM's.
