CatStat: Earthquake Catalog and Bulletin Quality Control Package

Purpose:
   To provide users with a baseline set of statistics and graphs in order to quickly
assess the quality of data in an earthquake bulletin or catalog.  This is not intended to be
a complete investigation of the given catalog, but as a general, and preliminary look into the
completeness and overall quality of data contained with a bulletin/catalog.


  There are two main programs: QCReport and QCmulti.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
QCReport: Preliminary QC Analysis of a single catalog/bulletin
QCmulti: Preliminary QC comparison between two catalogs/bulletins
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For in-depth documentation, references, and detailed explanation of the algorithms used refer to
the documents in the DOCUMENTATION folder

git merge upstream/master %Merge changes into LOCAL master branch, syncing with the upstream without losing local changes
git status %Review status of repoistory
git push origin master %This will sync local repository to the merged changes

How to re-sync your local copy with the "authoritative" repo
git remote -v  %List the current conifigured remote repository for your fork
git remote add upstream https://github.com/ekmyers/CatStat.git % Specify new remote upstream repository to be synced with fork
git remote -v %Verify new upsream repoistory
