ObsPy is an open-source project dedicated to provide a Python framework for processing seismological data. It provides parsers for common file formats, clients to access data centers and seismological signal processing routines which allow the manipulation of seismological time series (see Beyreuther et al. 2010, Megies et al. 2011, Krischer et al. 2015).
The goal of the ObsPy project is to facilitate rapid application development for seismology.
ObsPy is licensed under the GNU Lesser General Public License (LGPL) v3.0.
A one-hour introduction to ObsPy is available at YouTube.

ObsPy Tutorial notebooks -- and much more on specific seismology topics -- can also be found on Seismo-Live, both as a static preview and as interactively runnable version.
from obspy import read
st = read() # load example seismogram
st.filter(type='highpass', freq=3.0)
st = st.select(component='Z')
st.plot()
