Rapid detection of data quality issues surrounding gravitational-wave events

The detection of gravitational waves is often hampered by the large number of instrumental artifacts found in data from ground-based gravitational-wave interferometers. It is essential that all data around detected events is tested for any data quality issues that may impact further analysis of these signals. As the rate of detection grows, it becomes even more important to standardize and reduce the latency of these procedures so that events can be quickly and uniformly processed in low latency. In this talk, I will describe the tools used to quickly identify data quality issues nearby gravitational-wave signals found by LIGO-Virgo. Focusing on previously detected events, I will show examples of how these procedures can be used to flag and address different types of instrumental artifacts. I will also show how recent developments in automation have improved the precision and speed of these analyses.
