Data Access

The  field  data  and matlab scripts are available in this directory. Data can be accessed three ways:

(1) The text can be read through your web browser by clicking resistivity or gravity
on the appropriate file.  If you are looking for Wenner array data (e8 and e9), Derrick has provided some
extra code.  Images of the seismic sections are also online.

(2) The files can be copied from the directory /home/GPSUserWebPages/ge111/Gravsurvey  or  /home/GPSUserWebPages/ge111/Ressurvey  as appropriate.

(3) On the PC in SM366 (Kodiak) in the directories d:/GE 111/Gravsurvey and d:/GE 111/Ressurvey.



Software Info

Gravpoly, the gravity simulation package,  runs only in Windows. There are two PCs available in South Mudd  and a few others in 215 NM. You can also install the software on your own computer using the website:
http://www.es.lancs.ac.uk/es/people/teach/br/progs/GravPoly/GravPoly.htm.

An introduction to matlab is available here.

There are now 4 versions of the gravity processing matlab script.  All four do drift, calibration, latitude and free air corrections and plot the results. They all also have the option of dumping a gravpoly file. They differ as follows:

processgravangle This reads in angle survey data (azimuth, horiz distance, elevation).
In the gravpoly file it calculates horizontal distances relative to the total base station.

processgrav This reads in x y coordinate data.
In the gravpoly file it calculates horizontal distances relative to the total base station.

pgatopo This reads in angle survey data (azimuth, horiz distance, elevation).
In the gravpoly file it calculates horizontal distances relative to the first point on the survey line.

pgtopo This reads in x y coordinate data.
In the gravpoly file it calculates horizontal distances relative to the first point on the survey line.

For most purpose pgatopo is the script of choice. Use pgtopo for combinined survey line, i.e.
Monday and Wednesday, and the older processgrav and processgravangle if you want
to measure distances in gravpoly relative to the total base station.

To create synthetics do the following:

1) run matlab on a Unix machine

2) type processgravangle, processgrav, pgatopo or pgtopo as appropriate
at the matlab prompt and answer the questions. When you are prompted, input
a filename for your gravpoly file.

3) Exit matlab and type "unix2dos [gravpolyfilename] [dosgravpolyfilename]"
This converts the text to something readable by the PC

4) Find a PC and use the WSFTP tool to FTP your file from your Unix account
to the PC

5) Run Gravpoly and open your file.

To obtain access to seismic data:
(1) type "xhost +betsy"
(2)  rlogin to betsy
(3) setenv DISPLAY  [computer name]:0.0
(4) type "isis"
(5) On the first time you access a dataset, choose "new data."  Data path is /opt/isis/betsy/data.
       After the first time, just choose open.

NOTE: The plot module always must be the last one in the sequence.
