NAME

gensetg - BSU INTERACTIVE program creates files for setting geometry where phones fixed, shots move (reciprocal shooting).

SYNOPSIS

gensetg [ -h ]

DESCRIPTION

Basic Seismic Utilities (BSU) program creates control files which direct the setting of geometry. Data files are related to a survey file (*.nez) by two text files, one for shots, the other for geophones. The shots.txt file consists of 2 columns. The first column is a data file name (*.seg, these files would be generated by egg2seg for example). The second column is the survey flag name (SP01 for example). The phones.txt file relates specific channel numbers to survey locations. The first column is channel number, the second column is the corresponding survey flag number (like VP12). This program is designed for reciprocal refraction shooting, where the phones are stationary (for example on the river banks in a bridge survey), and the shots move (perhaps across a river). IT IS NOT DESIGNED FOR CDP WORK . This program should be run before setgeom. This program is well suited to situations where a number of jumpers are employed to locate blocks of geophones at specific, fixed locations. C-Language Version.

-h

Online help giving describes use of interactive program.

EXAMPLE INTERACTIVE RUN:
Assume that you have a survey file (*.nez) which gives the coordinates of shots with a label prefix of "SP" and geophones with a label prefix "VP".

[pm@dell]$ gensetg

SHOTS: ---------------------------

Enter first shot file NAME number

1001

Enter last shot file NAME number

1004

Enter first SP label NUMBER

01

Enter increment for SP label NUMBER

01

PHONES: ---------------------------

Enter number of BLOCKS to define channels

2

BLOCK Number------- 1

Channels (1) through (?)

Enter last channel for this block

12

Enter first label VP NUMBER for this block

01

Enter label VP increment for this block

01

BLOCK Number------- 2

Channels (13) through (?)

Enter last channel for this block

24

Enter first label VP NUMBER for this block

50

Enter label VP increment for this block

1

The above sequence produces the following shot.txt file:

1001.seg SP01

1002.seg SP02

1003.seg SP03

1004.seg SP04

The following phones.txt file is produced which describes two blocks of geophone layouts.

01 VP01

02 VP02

03 VP03

04 VP04

05 VP05

06 VP06

07 VP07

08 VP08

09 VP09

10 VP10

11 VP11

12 VP12

13 VP50

14 VP51

15 VP52

16 VP53

17 VP54

18 VP55

19 VP56

20 VP57

21 VP58

22 VP59

23 VP60

24 VP61

FILES
