obspy.core.event.Catalog.write¶
- Catalog.write(filename, format, **kwargs)[source]¶
Saves catalog into a file.
Parameters: - filename (str) The name of the file to write.
- format (str) The file format to use (e.g. "QUAKEML"). See the Supported Formats section below for a list of supported formats.
- kwargs Additional keyword arguments passed to the underlying plugin’s writer method.
Example
>>> from obspy.core.event import readEvents >>> catalog = readEvents() >>> catalog.write("example.xml", format="QUAKEML")
Writing single events into files with meaningful filenames can be done e.g. using event.id
>>> for ev in catalog: ... filename = str(ev.resource_id) + ".xml" ... ev.write(filename, format="QUAKEML")
