Handle gaps & overlaps

Hi community,

I have messy files containing many gaps & overlaps of different lengths. I want to use ObsPy’s merge function to correct these gaps & overlaps, however, I would like to limit the corrections to gaps & overlaps of lengths smaller than, e.g., 5 samples.

So something like this:
st.merge(method=1, fill_value=‘interpolate’, interpolation_samples=-1, max_gap=5, max_overlap=5)

The st.get_gaps() function has such parameter, the st.merge() doesn’t appear so. Can ObsPy handle such a thing or would I need to craft a hack myself?

Thanks a lot in advance!
John

Sorry, John, but I don't think we have something like this implemented already, at least I'm not aware of it. So you probably have to handle this special case yourself..

best,
Tobias
