SeismicX-Cont Mini: A Two-Hour Subset of Seismic Data for Testing

SeismicX-Cont Mini is a two-hour subset of a larger seismic dataset, archived on Zenodo. It is designed for quick download, tutorial use, and testing data processing workflows before using the full 14-day data product. The dataset was created by cangyeone and last updated on June 14, 2026.

Use Cases

• Testing HDF5 data loading and processing workflows based on the described file format.
• Validating seismic event picker algorithms on the included annotation data.
• Conducting software smoke tests for seismic analysis tools using the compact dataset.
• Running tutorials for seismic data handling with the SQLite database mentioned in the description.

Strengths

• Specifically designed as a two-hour subset for quick download and testing.
• Includes multiple components for workflow validation: HDF5 files, annotations, an SQLite database, a data loader, and a picker.
• Serves as a precursor to a full 14-day data product, allowing for compatibility checks.

Limitations

• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
