## ANXCOR: Ambient Noise X (cross) Correlation

## CURRENTLY IN DEVELOPMENT/UNSTABLE

ANXCOR is a python library for performing seismic ambient noise crosscorrelations.

ANXCOR is not intended to replace existing seismic ambient noise processing codes. Instead, our goal is to provide a framework for rapid prototyping of new processing routines, and small-batch production of seismic ambient noise correlation functions. ANXCOR is designed with readability and explicit documentation in mind; all algorithms are well documented, grounded in research, and written following most of the practices outlined in the [Clean Code Handbook by Robert C. Martin](https://www.amazon.com/Clean-Code-Handbook-Software-Craftsmanship/dp/0132350882).

ANXCOR integrates seamlessly into the current python datascience stack, leverage common datascience packages like [pandas](http://pandas.pydata.org), [NumPy](http://www.numpy.org), and [SciPy](http://www.scipy.org), as well as the popular seismology package [ObsPy](https://github.com/obspy/obspy/wiki). Furthermore, it leverages both [xarray](http://xarray.pydata.org/en/stable/) and [dask](http://dask.org) to achieve embarassingly parallel execution. Use of these popular packages makes working with ANXCOR intuitive, concise, and extensible without deep domain experience in compiled languages.

## Acknowledgements Kevin A. Mendoza served as chief architect and programmer of ANXCOR. Development of the project was inspired by Dr. Fan-Chi Lin’s work in Ambient Noise Seismic Tomography. Many of the routines implemented here were written after careful consultation with him and his Graduate Student work group (However, none of their code was copied or directly translated into anxcor). Ph.D. Candidate Elizableth Berg especially was integral to the success of this project.
