Abstract
The first part of this work discussed the software requirements for working with geophysical monitoring data. This paper considers the technology for studying similar signals realized in the WinABD program. In contrast to many statistical analysis programs, WinABD supports a complete cycle of operations necessary for working with experimental time series. The software includes a database management system, a powerful research apparatus, and an interactive data visualization environment. The program makes it possible to analyze the structure of series and reveal dependences and interrelations between signals. There are a large number of nonstandard tools and methods necessary for everyday work with nonideal data. A moving time window technology is widely used, which makes it possible to study the development of all processes with time and reveal variations related to any events. A special “window-slamming” technology at the boundaries of a series makes it possible to carry out processing with a decreasing length of the series, which allows arbitrary combination of the applied methods. All of the procedures admit the presence of gaps in observations. For all data operations, a calendar time scale is used, which substantially improves convenience of operation. Correct joint processing of series with unidentical onset dates and noncoinciding observation periodicity is provided.
