GUI front-end and configuration management for IDA calibration utilities. Developed specifically for random binary calibration of Streckeisen STS 2.5 seismometers used with Quanterra Q330HR digitizers.

PyCal is a self contained Python application being developed and tested on Apple computers running OS X version 10.10 or 10.11. PyCal utilizes the latest Python scientific computing and visualization libraries including NumPy, SciPy and Matplotlib (see http://scipy.org/). PyCal also makes use of a number of utilities previously developed by Project IDA for calibrating the II network GSN stations. For the reading of raw miniseed data it utilizes source code from ObsPy, a python-based framework for seismology (http://obspy.org/).
