NAME

bagl - BSU program computes angle between two data sets (C-Language Version)

SYNOPSIS

bagl [ -h | infile1 | infile2 | tmin | tmax ]

DESCRIPTION

Basic Seismic Utilities (BSU) program computes angle in degrees between traces in two data sets. Innerproduct is taken for each trace pair. The acosine of the innerproduct normalized by the L2 norms of each trace in the pair gives the angle. If traces are the same, then the angle will be zero. If they are orthogonal, the angle returned will be 90 degrees. If one data set is the negative of the other, the angle will be 180 degrees.

NOTE:
Two data sets must have same number of traces, samples, and sample interval.

Options

-h

Online help giving details on command line arguments

infile1

First argument is the first input file name

infile2

Second argument is the second input file name

tmin

This is the start time in seconds for the analysis window.

tmax

This is the end time in seconds for the analysis window. The dimension of the vector space is set by the number of samples between tmin and tmax.

NOTE:
If invoked with no options, will prompt user for input parameters.

EXAMPLE:
bagl w001.seg wavV.seg 0. 0.5

Files w001.seg and wavV.seg are processed by bagl. For example, maybe wavV.seg is a synthetic seismogram meant to match w001.seg (perhaps in a full wave inversion scheme). The angles between traces are a measure of how close the synthetic matches the field data. The ideal case would be an angle of zero for each trace.

FILES

baglxxxx.dat

named according to convention (first 4char bagl, the next 4char are the first 4char of the input file name, suffix .dat). This is a text file which lists 2 columns, (trace number, angle).

standard output

produces a progress bar

baglxxxx.lst

Echo check of input parameters in listing file.
