Please note that some of the back azimuths in the current version have been misplaced. If you plan to use back azimuth labels you can recalculate it based on station and event location. Here is code to do so using Obspy:
distance_m, azimuth, back_azimuth = obspy.geodetics.base.gps2dist_azimuth(
float(event_lat),
float(event_lon),
float(station_lat),
float(station_lon),
a=6378137.0,
f=0.0033528106647474805)Each of the following files contains one hdf5 (data) and one CSV (metadata) files for ~ 200k 3C waveforms. You can download the chunks you need and then merge them into a single file using the provided code in the repository.
https://rebrand.ly/chunk1 (chunk1 ~ 14.6 GB) Noise
https://rebrand.ly/chunk2 (chunk2 ~ 13.7 GB) Local Earthquakes
https://rebrand.ly/chunk3 (chunk3 ~ 13.7 GB) Local Earthquakes
https://rebrand.ly/chunk4 (chunk4 ~ 13.7 GB) Local Earthquakes
https://rebrand.ly/chunk5 (chunk5 ~ 13.7 GB) Local Earthquakes
https://rebrand.ly/chunk6 (chunk6 ~ 15.7 GB) Local Earthquakes
If you have a fast internet you can download the entire dataset in a single file using following links:

-
Note1: some of the unzipper programs for Windows and Linux operating systems have size limits. Try '7Zip' software if had problems unzipping the files.
-
Note2: all the metadata are also available in the hdf5 file (as attributes associated with each waveform).
-
Note3: For some of the noise data waveforms are identical for 3 components. These are related to single-channel stations where we duplicated the vertical channel for horizontal ones. However, these makeup to less than 4 % of noise data. For the rest, noise is different for each channel.
If you had trouble downloading the data from above links or unzipping them, you can get the dataset from SeisBench
https://rebrand.ly/STEADrg or https://rebrand.ly/STEADac
You can use QuakeLabeler (https://maihao14.github.io/QuakeLabeler/) or SeisBench (https://github.com/seisbench/seisbench) to labele and convert your data into STEAD format.
