Magnetotellurics (MT) is an electromagnetic geophysical method that is sensitive to variations in subsurface electrical resistivity. Measurements of natural electric and magnetic fields are done in the time domain, where instruments can record for a couple of hours up to mulitple months resulting in data sets on the order of gigabytes. The principles of findability, accessibility, interoperability, and reuse of digital assets (FAIR) requires standardized metadata. Unfortunately, the MT community has never had a metadata standard for time series data. In 2019, the Working Group for Magnetotelluric Data Handling and Software (https://www.iris.edu/hq/about_iris/governance/mt_soft) was assembled by the Incorporated...

A unique opportunity for USGS to collaborate with IRIS-PASSCAL (the national seismic instrument facility) has presented itself to develop a geophysical data archive format that follows FAIR principles. IRIS-PASSCAL is extending facility to include magnetotelluric (MT) instruments prescribing the need for them to archive collected MT data by extending their existing protocol. Concurrently, Congress has mandated the USGS to collect nationwide MT data (5000 stations) which will all need to be archived under FAIR principles. In collaboration with IRIS-PASSCAL, we propose to develop a generalized HDF5 format for archiving MT data which can easily be extended to other geophysical data in the future. This project will...
