# obspy.clients.seedlink - SeedLink client for ObsPy

The obspy.clients.seedlink module provides an implementation of the SeedLink client protocol for ObsPy.

For simple requests of finite time windows see `Client`. To work with continuous data streams see `EasySeedLinkClient`, or for lower-level packet handling see `SLClient`.
