AUTOMT/MTV documentation

This is the documentation for AUTOMT/MTV version 2026.142#dd1ccc5.

In the main view, events are selected and visualized.

The waveform editor provides full control over moment tensor inversion.

Interactive and automatic Centroid search constrain earthquake depth.

Single-station inversions and Monte-Carlo tests confirm final solutions.
