Instruction

Identify the seismic event detection task and the available phase pick data (P-wave and S-wave arrivals).
Select the appropriate velocity model and association parameters (e.g., time window, spatial constraints) for the target region.
Run the Gamma phase associator to link discrete seismic picks into cohesive earthquake events.
Refine the initial event locations and origin times based on the probability distributions of the associated picks.
Evaluate the quality of the association using residuals, pick counts, and uncertainty metrics.
Export the associated event catalogs in standard formats for downstream seismological analysis or earthquake monitoring.

When to Use

When needing to automate the association of seismic phase picks with discrete earthquake events.
When building earthquake catalogs from dense seismic network data.
When performing real-time seismic monitoring where high-speed phase association is required.

Support gamma phase associator workflows with clear steps and best practices.
