By the end of Lesson 8 you should be able to:
- Download, manipulate, and analyze publicly available earthquake catalog data from the Incorporated Research Institutions in Seismology (IRIS) and from the United States Geological Survey (USGS).
- Download, manipulate, and analyze publicly available geodetic data from UNAVCO.
- Calculate plate velocities and earthquake slip from geodetic data
