Introduction
This program, SUDS2SEGY, converts and combines ASCII files
created using SUDS2ASC Version 2.60, to a single SEGY file.
SUDS2ASC has been used previously to create an ASCII file
of three-component seismic data for an individual recording station.
However, many seismic processing packages have difficulty
reading in ASCII data. In addition, it may be cumbersome
to process a separate file for each recording station, particularly
if traces from different recording stations contain a different
number of data samples and/or a different start time.
This new program - SUDS2SEGY - combines these recording station
files into a single SEGY file. In addition, SUDS2SEGY normalizes
the trace times so that each trace starts at a given time and
consists of a fixed number of samples. This normalization allows
seismic data from many different stations to be read in as a single
"data gather". SUDS2SEGY also produces a report summarizing the
offset and maximum absolute amplitude for each component in a station
file. These data are output separately to an ASCII file and
can be subsequently input to a plotting package.
