NAME

genref - BSU generates bash scripts for setting geometry on CDP reflection shooting

SYNOPSIS

genref [ no options, this is an interactive program ]

DESCRIPTION

Basic Seismic Utilities (BSU) interacts with the user to produce a set of bash scripts used to set geometry assuming a "Roll-a-long" CDP shooting geometry when no surveyor provided *.nez file is available. Designed only for Bison Format data sets. While similar to genvsp, this program is more limited in that only Bison data are provided for. If you have SEG-2 data, you will want to try the C-language programs, gensetg.c and setgeom.c which can do pattern geometry setting. NOTE: User must change permissions to execute on bash scripts generated by this program. Fortran 77.

NOTES, BISON FORMAT DATA:
Data files will be named with 8 characters (ABCD0001 for example, 4 alpha, 4 numeric). In addition to generating an *.nez file (with coordinates of shots and receivers), bash scripts will be generated that call topcon and bis2seg programs. The first bash script, geom, runs topcon and generates *.xyz files which are later read by program bhed.

EXAMPLE INTERACTIVE RUN:
CDP Roll-a-long Pattern Generator
Bison Format Data

FILES

xxxxxx.nez

A 6 character prefix is specified by the user for the *.nez file. It has shot and geophone coordinates.

geom

Bash script that runs topcon for all the records in the survey.

go1

Bash script that takes a 3 character sequence number. Runs bis2seg and bhed programs. This script is called by geom2.

geom2

Script that calls go1 for all the records in the survey.
