QuakeMigrate is a Python package for the detection and location of earthquakes.
QuakeMigrate uses an efficient, parallelised waveform stacking algorithm, implemented in C, to search for coherent seismic phase arrivals across a network of instruments. It produces, from raw data, a catalogue of earthquakes with locations, origin times and phase arrival picks, as well as estimates of the uncertainties associated with these measurements.
The package has been designed to be simple to use, even for those with no prior experience with Python. For more details, including installation, tutorials and documentation, please visit readthedocs.io/qmigrate.
QuakeMigrate is currently in preparation for publication. However, an outline to the technique is outline

We hope that the publication will be submitted shortly at:
