If you were wondering what a bored Xman does in their free time, this might give you an indication.....
You should know by now that mXrap is very flexible and apps can be developed to perform a very wide range of functions. If you were doubting that, this might change your mind :)
Some things you see in mXrap are properties of the software, while other things are properties of the root folder.
We often use the software Excel as an analogy. Excel has many built-in capabilities with endless possibilities for creating specific calculations. The software has powerful capabilities, but without a user constructing the spreadsheet, the power and value are not fully utilised. An Excel user can set up a spreadsheet which, with the required inputs, will provide you with results. This user can then provide you with that spreadsheet, which you can then use to perform the same calculations with other inputs.
The default event local magnitude marker might not suit everyone. After all, a ML+1.0 might mean something completely different to you compared with the site next door.
We previously created a Basic Seismic Monitoring app but it didn't get widely used. We've taken another swing at a new version released late in 2017.
The new app is intended for mine control room operators to monitor the latest seismicity and communicate event alerts and exclusion areas depending on site specific rules. Each site can set up their own event alert and exclusion settings in the Basic Seismic Monitoring (Admin) application and then the main application is a simplified interface for the viewer.
