segy2grd - Converting SEGY file to grd file format

segy2grd segyfile -Ggrdfile -Ix_inc[/y_inc] -Rwest/east/south/north[r] [ -A[n|z] ] [ -Dxunit/yunit/zunit/scale/offset/title/remark ] [ -F ] [ -Nnodata ] [ -S[zfile] ] [ -V ] [ -Z[flags] ] [ -: ] [ -bi[s][n] ]

segy2grd reads an IEEE SEGY file and creates a binary grdfile. Either a simple mapping (equivalent to xyz2grd -Z) or a more complicated averaging where a particular grid cell includes values from more than one sample in the SEGY file can be done. segy2grd will report if some of the nodes are not filled in with data. Such unconstrained nodes are set to a value specified by the user [Default is NaN]. Nodes with more than one value will be set to the average value.

segyfile

ASCII [or binary] file holding z or (x,y,z) values. xyz triplets do not have to be sorted (for binary triplets, see -b). 1-column z tables must be sorted and the -Z must be set).

-G

grdfile is the name of the binary output grdfile.

-I

x_inc [and optionally y_inc] is the grid spacing. Append m to indicate minutes or c to indicate seconds.

-R

west, east, south, and north specify the Region of interest. To specify boundaries in degrees and minutes [and seconds], use the dd:mm[:ss] format. Append r if lower left and upper right map coordinates are given instead of wesn.

-A

Add up multiple values that belong to the same node (same as -Az). Append n to simply count the number of data points that were assigned to each node. [Default (no -A option) will calculate mean value]. Not used for simple mapping.

-D

Give values for xunit, yunit, zunit, scale, offset, title, and remark. To leave some of these values untouched, specify = as the value.

-F

Force pixel registration [Default is grid registration].

-N

No data. Set nodes with no input sample to this value [Default is NaN].

-S

set variable spacing header is c for cdp, o for offset, b<number> for 4-byte float starting at byte number If -S not set, assumes even spacing of samples at the dx, dy supplied with -I

-L

Override number of samples in each trace

-X

applies scalar x-scale to coordinates in trace header to match the coordinates specified in -R

-Y

Specifies sample interval as s_int if incorrect in the SEGY file

-M

Fix number of traces to read in. Default tries to read 10000 traces. -M0 will read number in binary header, -Mn will attempt to read only n traces.

-V

Selects verbose mode, which will send progress reports to stderr [Default runs "silently"].
