RESPONSE DATA
Please contact archive-gps@unavco.org for information on data availability. To request access to these and other RT-GPS stations operated by UNAVCO please send an email request to rtgps@unavco.org.
NOTA GPS/GNSS Real Time Data Solutions
14 GPS/GNSS stations within ~100 km of the epicenter were operating in real-time during the event, i.e., they were continuously streaming high rate (1-sps / 1 Hz) data to UNAVCO (Figure 1). Typical latencies for real-time stations, the time lapse between and observation being recorded on the receiver and it arriving in Boulder are less than 1 second.
NOTA GPS/GNSS High-Rate Data for Post Processing
UNAVCO is downloading high-rate 1- and 5-sps (1 and 5 Hz) data from all NOTA GPS/GNSS stations within 115 km of the epicenter. These data are available in RINEX format from the UNAVCO high-rate data ftp site.
GAGE GPS/GNSS Displacement Estimates
The GAGE AC (MIT) inspects the NOTA GPS/GNSS daily positions for significant offsets when they have two to three days of post-event data. Offsets for this event have been posted to the UNAVCO Data Products event page in file cwu_200624_1741_eq55_coseis_rapid.evt.
NOTA Borehole Strainmeter Data
UNAVCO will produce a fully processed 1-sps borehole strainmeter (BSM) dataset for this event. This dataset can be downloaded from the UNAVCO borehole strainmeter event response page, or directly via the 20200624_LonePineCA folder, when it is ready. See Figures 2-6 for dynamic strain examples from this event. For an explanation of these plots, see our Geophysical Event Response Data Explainer: Dynamic Strain.
