Input files specification

The application requires exactly two files that are in the format of a Matlab catalog (type Data Catalog). These may be a Catalog (a seismic events catalog), Ground Motion Catalog or any other similar type - check other possible catalog data formats, including also catalogs that are produced by joining two different catalog types (products of the Parameters Catalog builder user guide). However, it is important that the two files are of the same type.

For the purpose of this guide, we use the seismic catalog (Catalog), but most of the functionality is the same for other types.

Produced output

The resulting catalog is created by appending the second chosen catalog to the first one. First, the rows of the second catalog are added to the first catalog. Next, additional columns with parameters are added in the following way: columns with new event parameters (seismic catalog case) are merged by event ID. In case of other types of catalogs - columns with new registration parameters caused by events are added, merging catalogs by Registration ID.
