Data conversion

1. Move to your working directory (e.g.   cd   /data/SVAL98/arne )
2. Copy the seg* files from the /data directory (   cp   /data/seg*   . )
3. If you want to convert the file 001.1 to SEG-Y, do the command   ./seg2segy   001.1   1
4. If you want to convert the files 011.1 to 020.1 into a single SEG-Y file, do the command   ./seg2segy   011.1   10

The syntax for the seg2segy program is
seg2segy   FirstFile   NumberOfFiles
The name of the SEG-Y file is the same as the FirstFile, but with the extention sgy.

Note:

• For further processing, you should run the process described below.
• It may be necessary to recompile the source code for the seg2segy program. Go to the directory where the program is normally placed, /$CWPROOT/src/ThirdParty/seg2segy/. Enter the command make seg2segy. Then make a symlink to the new executable in /$CWPROOT/bin by typing ln -s /$CWPROOT/src/ThirdParty/seg2segy/seg2segy (assuming you are in /$CWPROOT/bin). $CWPROOT is a variable normally set in /etc/profile. Type echo $CWPROOT to see its current value.
