[OpendTect_Users] Survey Geometry

[Scott Schroeder]

Dear Friends - Is there a way to edit CBVS files and look at the file itself for editing?
Thanks,
Scott

Dear Andrew Jo,

The document (OpendTect User documentation section 3.1.2) explains in
details how to setup a new survey.

http://opendtect.org/rel4/doc/User/base/chapter3_how-to.htm#LINK-HOW.TO.SURVEY.SETUP


There are several ways of filling a new survey ranges/coordinate
settings (Automatic, Manual, Copy, Workstation):

1- Auto-filling the ranges by scanning a SEG-Y file:
Set the 'Survey ranges/coordinate settings' into the 'Scan SEG-Y
file(s).' option.
The SEG-Y import window will pop up. In this window, select the input
file(s) (2D/3D). Select an appropriate 'File Type' and press OK to start
scanning the input file. After the scan is completed, the survey ranges
and coordinate settings will be filled automatically.

2- Manual Entry:
The blank fields can be filled manually by setting 'Ranges/coordinate
settings'  (in the Survey setup Window) to 'Enter below'.
This is a good choice when the user already knows the extents of survey
ranges (inline/crossline/Z-range), just fill the maximum, minimum ranges
and corresponding steps.

3- If your data is 2D only:
Set the 'Survey Ranges/coordinate settings/ into 'Set for 2D only'. The
window will pop up in which the average trace distance and the ranges
for XY-coordinates are entered: Fill the approximate values and press OK
afterward.
These parameters are survey characteristics to define the survey box. In
the survey ranges dummy ranges for inline, crossline are automatically
set. Then fill in the Z range (no precision needed; 2D lines can stick
out of the display box in all directions). The limit of the survey box
will not affect the loading of 2D lines. The lines outside the survey
area would be loaded normally. And that should be it. Press OK and
select the new survey.

4-  Copy/Get from GeoFrame:
These options are specifically designed for the pre-existing survey
definitions. Therefore, the survey ranges can be
  * Copied from the existing OpendTect survey
  * Get the survey ranges from GeoFrame (Workstation access plugin is
required)

Note: For details, please follow the above link.

I hope this will help, otherwise come back if you have any questions,

Best regards,

Eric
