    A container for additional header information of a ObsPy Trace object.

    A ``Stats`` object may contain all header information (also known as meta
    data) of a :class:`~obspy.core.trace.Trace` object. Those headers may be
    accessed or modified either in the dictionary style or directly via a
    corresponding attribute. There are various default attributes which are
    required by every waveform import and export modules within ObsPy such as
    :mod:`obspy.io.mseed`.

    :type header: dict or :class:`~obspy.core.trace.Stats`, optional
    :param header: Dictionary containing meta information of a single
        :class:`~obspy.core.trace.Trace` object. Possible keywords are
        summarized in the following `Default Attributes`_ section.

    .. rubric:: Basic Usage

    >>> stats = Stats()
    >>> stats.network = 'BW'
    >>> print(stats['network'])
    BW
    >>> stats['station'] = 'MANZ'
    >>> print(stats.station)
    MANZ

    .. rubric:: _`Default Attributes`

    ``sampling_rate`` : float, optional
        Sampling rate in hertz (default value is 1.0).
    ``delta`` : float, optional
        Sample distance in seconds (default value is 1.0).
    ``calib`` : float, optional
        Calibration factor (default value is 1.0).
    ``npts`` : int, optional
        Number of sample points (default value is 0, which implies that no data
        is present).
    ``network`` : string, optional
        Network code (default is an empty string).
    ``location`` : string, optional
        Location code (default is an empty string).
    ``station`` : string, optional
        Station code (default is an empty string).
    ``channel`` : string, optional
        Channel code (default is an empty string).
    ``starttime`` : :class:`~obspy.core.utcdatetime.UTCDateTime`, optional
        Date and time of the first data sample given in UTC (default value is
        "1970-01-01T00:00:00.0Z").
    ``endtime`` : :class:`~obspy.core.utcdatetime.UTCDateTime`, optional
        Date and time of the last data sample given in UTC
        (default value is "1970-01-01T00:00:00.0Z").

    .. rubric:: Notes

    (1) The attributes ``sampling_rate`` and ``delta`` are linked to each
        other. If one of the attributes is modified the other will be
        recalculated.

        >>> stats = Stats()
        >>> stats.sampling_rate
        1.0
        >>> stats.delta = 0.005
        >>> stats.sampling_rate
        200.0

    (2) The attributes ``starttime``, ``npts``, ``sampling_rate`` and ``delta``
        are monitored and used to automatically calculate the ``endtime``.

        >>> stats = Stats()
        >>> stats.npts = 60
        >>> stats.delta = 1.0
        >>> stats.starttime = UTCDateTime(2009, 1, 1, 12, 0, 0)
        >>> stats.endtime
        UTCDateTime(2009, 1, 1, 12, 0, 59)
        >>> stats.delta = 0.5
        >>> stats.endtime
        UTCDateTime(2009, 1, 1, 12, 0, 29, 500000)

    (3) The attribute ``endtime`` is read only and can not be modified.

        >>> stats = Stats()
        >>> stats.endtime = UTCDateTime(2009, 1, 1, 12, 0, 0)
        Traceback (most recent call last):
        ...
        AttributeError: Attribute "endtime" in Stats object is read only!

        Traceback (most recent call last):
        ...
        AttributeError: Attribute "endtime" in Stats object is read only!

    (4)
        The attribute ``npts`` will be automatically updated from the
        :class:`~obspy.core.trace.Trace` object.

        >>> trace = Trace()
        >>> trace.stats.npts
        0

        the array to C code. On the other hand this might result in some

                contains data with a more correct time value. The parameter
                ``interpolation_samples`` specifies the number of samples used
                to linearly interpolate between the two traces in order to
                prevent steps. Note that if there are gaps inside, the
                returned array is still a masked array, only if ``fill_value``

            Use ``None`` for no inverse filtering.
        :type paz_simulate: dict, None
        :param paz_simulate: Dictionary containing keys ``'poles'``,
            ``'zeros'``, ``'gain'``. Poles and zeros must be a list of complex
            floating point numbers, gain must be of type float. Or ``None`` for
            no simulation.
        :type remove_sensitivity: bool
        :param remove_sensitivity: Determines if data is divided by
            ``paz_remove['sensitivity']`` to correct for overall sensitivity of
            recording instrument (seismometer/digitizer) during instrument
            correction.
        :type simulate_sensitivity: bool
        :param simulate_sensitivity: Determines if data is multiplied with
            ``paz_simulate['sensitivity']`` to simulate overall sensitivity of
            new instrument (seismometer/digitizer) during instrument
            simulation.

        This function corrects for the original instrument response given by
        `paz_remove` and/or simulates a new instrument response given by
        `paz_simulate`.
        For additional information and more options to control the instrument
        correction/simulation (e.g. water level, demeaning, tapering, ...) see
        :func:`~obspy.signal.invsim.simulate_seismometer`.

        `paz_remove` and `paz_simulate` are expected to be dictionaries
        containing information on poles, zeros and gain (and usually also
        sensitivity).

        If both `paz_remove` and `paz_simulate` are specified, both steps are
        performed in one go in the frequency domain, otherwise only the
        specified step is performed.

        .. note::

            Instead of the builtin deconvolution based on Poles and Zeros
            information, the deconvolution can be performed using evalresp
            instead by using the option `seedresp` (see documentation of
            :func:`~obspy.signal.invsim.simulate_seismometer` and the `ObsPy
            Tutorial <https://docs.obspy.org/master/tutorial/code_snippets/\

        Currently a simple integer decimation is implemented.
        Only every ``decimation_factor``-th sample remains in the trace, all
        other samples are thrown away. Prior to decimation a lowpass filter is
        applied to ensure no aliasing artifacts are introduced. The automatic
        filtering can be deactivated with ``no_filter=True``.

        If the length of the data array modulo ``decimation_factor`` is not
        zero then the end time of the trace is changing on sub-sample scale. To
        abort downsampling in case of changing end times set
        ``strict_length=True``.

            The :class:`~Trace` object has three different methods to change
            the sampling rate of its data: :meth:`~.resample`,
            :meth:`~.decimate`, and :meth:`~.interpolate`

            Make sure to choose the most appropriate one for the problem at
            hand.

        Make a Trace and copy it:

        The two objects are not the same:

        The following example shows how to make an alias but not copy the

            object.

        .. rubric:: _`Interpolation Methods:`

        The chosen method is crucial and we will elaborate a bit about the
        choices here:

        * ``"lanczos"``: This offers the highest quality interpolation and
          should be chosen whenever possible. It is only due to legacy
          reasons that this is not the default method. The one downside it
          has is that it can be fairly expensive. See the
          :func:`~obspy.signal.interpolation.lanczos_interpolation` function
          for more details.
        * ``"weighted_average_slopes"``: This is the interpolation method used
          by SAC. Refer to
          :func:`~obspy.signal.interpolation.weighted_average_slopes` for
          more details.
        * ``"slinear"``, ``"quadratic"`` and ``"cubic"``: spline interpolation
          of first, second or third order.
        * ``"linear"``: Linear interpolation.
        * ``"nearest"``: Nearest neighbour interpolation.
        * ``"zero"``: Last encountered value interpolation.

        .. rubric:: _`Parameters:`

        :param sampling_rate: The new sampling rate in ``Hz``.
        :param method: The kind of interpolation to perform as a string. One of
            ``"linear"``, ``"nearest"``, ``"zero"``, ``"slinear"``,
            ``"quadratic"``, ``"cubic"``, ``"lanczos"``, or
            ``"weighted_average_slopes"``. Alternatively an integer
            specifying the order of the spline interpolator to use also works.
            Defaults to ``"weighted_average_slopes"``.
        :type starttime: :class:`~obspy.core.utcdatetime.UTCDateTime` or int
        :param starttime: The start time (or timestamp) for the new
            interpolated stream. Will be set to current start time of the
            trace if not given.
        :type npts: int
        :param npts: The new number of samples. Will be set to the best
            fitting  number to retain the current end time of the trace if
            not given.
        :type time_shift: float
        :param time_shift: Shift the trace by adding time_shift to the
            starttime. The time shift is always given in seconds.
            A positive shift means the data is shifted towards the future,
            e.g. a positive time delta.
            Note that this parameter solely affects the metadata.
            The actual interpolation of the underlaying data is governed
            by the parameters sampling_rate, starttime and npts.

            .. note::

                Interpolation can also shift the data with
                subsample accuracy.  Please note that a time shift in
                the Fourier domain is always more accurate than this.
                When using Lanczos interpolation with large values of ``a``
                and away from the boundaries this is nonetheless pretty good.

        .. rubric:: _`New in version 0.11:`

        * New parameter ``time_shift``.
        * New interpolation method ``lanczos``.

        from the provided
        :class:`obspy.core.inventory.inventory.Inventory` data. Raises an
        exception if the response is not present.

        Note that there are two ways to prevent overamplification
        while convolving the inverted instrument spectrum: One possibility is
        to specify a water level which represents a clipping of the inverse
        spectrum and limits amplification to a certain maximum cut-off value
        (`water_level` in dB). The other possibility is to taper the waveform
        data in the frequency domain prior to multiplying with the inverse
        spectrum, i.e. perform a pre-filtering in the frequency domain
        (specifying the four corner frequencies of the frequency taper as a
        tuple in `pre_filt`).

        .. note::

            Any additional kwargs will be passed on to
            :meth:`obspy.core.inventory.response.Response.get_evalresp_response`,
            see documentation of that method for further customization (e.g.
            start/stop stage).

        .. note::

            Using :meth:`~Trace.remove_response` is equivalent to using
            :meth:`~Trace.simulate` with the identical response provided as
            a (dataless) SEED or RESP file and when using the same
            `water_level` and `pre_filt` (and options `sacsim=True` and
            `pitsasim=False` which influence very minor details in detrending
            and tapering).

        .. rubric:: Example

        >>> from obspy import read, read_inventory
        >>> st = read()
        >>> tr = st[0].copy()

        Using the `plot` option it is possible to visualize the individual
        steps during response removal in the frequency domain to check the
        chosen `pre_filt` and `water_level` options to stabilize the

    (1) The attributes ``sampling_rate`` and ``delta`` are linked to each
        other. If one of the attributes is modified the other will be
        recalculated.

        >>> stats = Stats()
        >>> stats.sampling_rate
        1.0
        >>> stats.delta = 0.005
        >>> stats.sampling_rate
        200.0

    (2) The attributes ``starttime``, ``npts``, ``sampling_rate`` and ``delta``
        are monitored and used to automatically calculate the ``endtime``.

        >>> stats = Stats()
        >>> stats.npts = 60
        >>> stats.delta = 1.0
        >>> stats.starttime = UTCDateTime(2009, 1, 1, 12, 0, 0)
        >>> stats.endtime
        UTCDateTime(2009, 1, 1, 12, 0, 59)
        >>> stats.delta = 0.5
        >>> stats.endtime
        UTCDateTime(2009, 1, 1, 12, 0, 29, 500000)

    (3) The attribute ``endtime`` is read only and can not be modified.

        >>> stats = Stats()
        >>> stats.endtime = UTCDateTime(2009, 1, 1, 12, 0, 0)
        Traceback (most recent call last):

        ...
        AttributeError: Attribute "endtime" in Stats object is read only!

        The attribute ``npts`` will be automatically updated from the
        :class:`~obspy.core.trace.Trace` object.

        Add another Trace object to current trace.

        :type method: int, optional
        :param method: Method to handle overlaps of traces. Defaults to ``0``.

        :type fill_value: int, float, str or ``None``, optional
        :param fill_value: Fill value for gaps. Defaults to ``None``. Traces
            will be converted to NumPy masked arrays if no value is given and
            gaps are present. If the keyword ``'latest'`` is provided it will
            use the latest value before the gap. If keyword ``'interpolate'``
            is provided, missing values are linearly interpolated (not
            changing the data type e.g. of integer valued traces).

        :type interpolation_samples: int, optional
        :param interpolation_samples: Used only for ``method=1``. It specifies
            the number of samples which are used to interpolate between
            overlapping traces. Defaults to ``0``. If set to ``-1`` all
            overlapping samples are interpolated.
        :type sanity_checks: bool, optional
        :param sanity_checks: Enables some sanity checks before merging traces.
            Defaults to ``True``.

        Trace data will be converted into a NumPy masked array data type if
        any gaps are present. This behavior may be prevented by setting the
        ``fill_value`` parameter. The ``method`` argument controls the
        handling of overlapping data values.

        Sampling rate, data type and trace.id of both traces must match.

        0       Discard overlapping data. Overlaps are essentially treated the
                same way as gaps::

                    Trace 1: AAAAAAAA
                    Trace 2:     FFFFFFFF
                    1 + 2  : AAAA----FFFF

                Contained traces with differing data will be marked as gap::

        1       Discard data of the previous trace assuming the following trace
                contains data with a more correct time value. The parameter
                ``interpolation_samples`` specifies the number of samples used
                to linearly interpolate between the two traces in order to
                prevent steps. Note that if there are gaps inside, the
                returned array is still a masked array, only if ``fill_value``
                is set, the returned array is a normal array and gaps are
                filled with fill value.

        Interpolate the data using various interpolation techniques.

        Be careful when downsampling data and make sure to apply an appropriate
        anti-aliasing lowpass filter before interpolating in case it's
        necessary.

        .. note::

            The :class:`~Trace` object has three different methods to change
            the sampling rate of its data: :meth:`~.resample`,
            :meth:`~.decimate`, and :meth:`~.interpolate`.

            Make sure to choose the most appropriate one for the problem at
            hand.

        .. note::

            This operation is performed in place on the actual data arrays. The
            raw data will no longer be accessible afterwards. To keep your
            original data, use :meth:`~.copy` to create a copy of your Trace
            object.

        .. rubric:: _`Interpolation Methods:`

        The chosen method is crucial and we will elaborate a bit about the
        choices here:

        * ``"lanczos"``: This offers the highest quality interpolation and
          should be chosen whenever possible. It is only due to legacy
          reasons that this is not the default method. The one downside it
          has is that it can be fairly expensive. See the
          :func:`~obspy.signal.interpolation.lanczos_interpolation` function
          for more details.
        * ``"weighted_average_slopes"``: This is the interpolation method used
          by SAC. Refer to
          :func:`~obspy.signal.interpolation.weighted_average_slopes` for
          more details.
        * ``"slinear"``, ``"quadratic"`` and ``"cubic"``: spline interpolation
          of first, second or third order.
        * ``"linear"``: Linear interpolation.
        * ``"nearest"``: Nearest neighbour interpolation.
        * ``"zero"``: Last encountered value interpolation.

        .. rubric:: _`Parameters:`

        :param sampling_rate: The new sampling rate in ``Hz``.
        :param method: The kind of interpolation to perform as a string. One of
            ``"linear"``, ``"nearest"``, ``"zero"``, ``"slinear"``,
            ``"quadratic"``, ``"cubic"``, ``"lanczos"``, or
            ``"weighted_average_slopes"``. Alternatively an integer
            specifying the order of the spline interpolator to use also works.
            Defaults to ``"weighted_average_slopes"``.
        :type starttime: :class:`~obspy.core.utcdatetime.UTCDateTime` or int
        :param starttime: The start time (or timestamp) for the new
            interpolated stream. Will be set to current start time of the
            trace if not given.
        :type npts: int
        :param npts: The new number of samples. Will be set to the best
            fitting  number to retain the current end time of the trace if
            not given.
        :type time_shift: float
        :param time_shift: Shift the trace by adding time_shift to the
            starttime. The time shift is always given in seconds.
            A positive shift means the data is shifted towards the future,
            e.g. a positive time delta.
            Note that this parameter solely affects the metadata.
            The actual interpolation of the underlaying data is governed
            by the parameters sampling_rate, starttime and npts.

            .. note::

                Interpolation can also shift the data with
                subsample accuracy.  Please note that a time shift in
                the Fourier domain is always more accurate than this.
                When using Lanczos interpolation with large values of ``a``
                and away from the boundaries this is nonetheless pretty good.

        .. rubric:: _`New in version 0.11:`

        * New parameter ``time_shift``.
        * New interpolation method ``lanczos``.

It is only due to legacy           reasons that this is not the default method. The one downside it           has is that it can be fairly expensive. See the           :func:`~obspy.signal.interpolation.lanczos_interpolation` function           for more details.         * ``"weighted_average_slopes"``: This is the interpolation method used           by SAC. Refer to           :func:`~obspy.signal.interpolation.weighted_average_slopes` for           more details.         * ``"slinear"``, ``"quadratic"`` and ``"cubic"``: spline interpolation           of first, second or third order.         * ``"linear"``: Linear interpolation.         * ``"nearest"``: Nearest neighbour interpolation.         * ``"zero"``: Last encountered value interpolation.          .. rubric:: _`Parameters:`          :param sampling_rate: The new sampling rate in ``Hz``.         :param method: The kind of interpolation to perform as a string.

Alternatively an integer             specifying the order of the spline interpolator to use also works.             Defaults to ``"weighted_average_slopes"``.         :type starttime: :class:`~obspy.core.utcdatetime.UTCDateTime` or int         :param starttime: The start time (or timestamp) for the new             interpolated stream.

Note that this parameter solely affects the metadata.             The actual interpolation of the underlaying data is governed             by the parameters sampling_rate, starttime and npts.              .. note::                  Interpolation can also shift the data with                 subsample accuracy.  Please note that a time shift in                 the Fourier domain is always more accurate than this.

Note that there are two ways to prevent overamplification         while convolving the inverted instrument spectrum: One possibility is         to specify a water level which represents a clipping of the inverse         spectrum and limits amplification to a certain maximum cut-off value         (`water_level` in dB). The other possibility is to taper the waveform         data in the frequency domain prior to multiplying with the inverse         spectrum, i.e. perform a pre-filtering in the frequency domain         (specifying the four corner frequencies of the frequency taper as a         tuple in `pre_filt`).          .. note::              Any additional kwargs will be passed on to             :meth:`obspy.core.inventory.response.Response.get_evalresp_response`,             see documentation of that method for further customization (e.g.             start/stop stage).          .. note::              Using :meth:`~Trace.remove_response` is equivalent to using             :meth:`~Trace.simulate` with the identical response provided as             a (dataless) SEED or RESP file and when using the same             `water_level` and `pre_filt` (and options `sacsim=True` and             `pitsasim=False` which influence very minor details in detrending             and tapering).          .. rubric:: Example          >>> from obspy import read, read_inventory         >>> st = read()         >>> tr = st[0].copy()         >>> inv = read_inventory()         >>> tr.remove_response(inventory=inv)  # doctest: +ELLIPSIS         <...Trace object at 0x...>         >>> tr.plot()  # doctest: +SKIP          .. plot::              from obspy import read, read_inventory             st = read()             tr = st[0]             inv = read_inventory()             tr.remove_response(inventory=inv)             tr.plot()          Using the `plot` option it is possible to visualize the individual         steps during response removal in the frequency domain to check the         chosen `pre_filt` and `water_level` options to stabilize the         deconvolution of the inverted instrument response spectrum:          >>> from obspy import read, read_inventory         >>> st = read("/path/to/IU_ULN_00_LH1_2015-07-18T02.mseed")         >>> tr = st[0]         >>> inv = read_inventory("/path/to/IU_ULN_00_LH1.xml")         >>> pre_filt = [0.001, 0.005, 45, 50]         >>> tr.remove_response(inventory=inv, pre_filt=pre_filt, output="DISP",         ...                    water_level=60, plot=True)  # doctest: +SKIP         <...Trace object at 0x...>          .. plot::              from obspy import read, read_inventory             st = read("/path/to/IU_ULN_00_LH1_2015-07-18T02.mseed", "MSEED")             tr = st[0]             inv = read_inventory("/path/to/IU_ULN_00_LH1.xml", "STATIONXML")             pre_filt = [0.001, 0.005, 45, 50]             output = "DISP"             tr.remove_response(inventory=inv, pre_filt=pre_filt, output=output,                                water_level=60, plot=True)          :type inventory: :class:`~obspy.core.inventory.inventory.Inventory`             or None.         :param inventory: Station metadata to use in search for adequate             response.
