What is floatCSEP

The Collaboratory for the Study of Earthquake Predictability (CSEP) has organized Earthquake Forecast Testing Experiments during the last decades and is now consolidating its research into open-software initiatives.

floatCSEP is an easy-to-use software application that contains the workflow to deploy Earthquake Forecasting Experiments. It is based on the code python library pyCSEP (Github), which itself contains the core routines to test earthquake forecasts.

Goals

  • Test your forecasts with simple commands.

  • Set up a testing experiment for your forecasts using authoritative data sources/benchmarks.

  • Encapsulate the complete experiment’s definition and rules in a couple of lines.

  • Reproduce, reuse, and share forecasting experiments.

Running

Start using floatCSEP by installing the latest version and running the tutorials with simply:

$ floatcsep run config.yml
