Classes to bridge between PDL and other file formats. The Earthquake Information Distribution System (EIDS) operated using a poll model, where XML messages were read from a polling directory and delivered to an output directory. Users periodically checked (polled) the output directory for new files to be processed. EIDSInputWedge and EIDSOutputWedge allow PDL to be integrated into legacy systems that operate on a poll model. Note that EIDSInputWedge can also be run in a push mode. Several classes implement translation from external formats into PDL products:
  • QuakemlProductCreator translates ANSS Quakeml 1.2 messages into origin, phase-data, focal-mechanism, moment-tensor, and broadband-depth type products.
  • EQMessageProductCreator translates ANSS EQXML messages. This format is deprecated, and has been replaced by ANSS Quakeml 1.2
  • The interfaces ProductCreator and FileToQuakemlConverter provide mechanisms for other file formats to be used with the EIDSInputWedge.
