PyFWAT

Python interface for SpecFWAT (Full Waveform Adjoint Tomography)

Overview

PyFWAT is a comprehensive Python toolkit designed for full waveform inversion (FWI) and adjoint tomography workflows. It provides a complete set of tools for preprocessing seismic data, running inversions, post-processing results, and visualizing various aspects of the tomographic models and data fits.

Features

• Preprocessing Tools: Data preparation and model setup utilities
• Plotting Utilities: Comprehensive visualization tools for velocity models, kernels, misfits, and data fits
• Post-processing: Model updates, kernel operations, and optimization routines
• Data I/O: Support for various seismic data formats and model representations
• Interactive Picking: GUI-based phase picking interface for teleseismic data
