  • Knudsen Sub-Bottom Profiler bash scripts example. Definitions: raw: digitized but unprocessed data, no correlation filtering applied, no envelope detection; filtered: data that has been correlation filtered but not envelope detected; detected: data that has been filtered and envelope detected. Comments: The 3260 puts more information (metadata) in the segy headers and sioseis program lsd has a new option, -K, to list it. e.g. lsd -K Note that the file name has 3.5kHz in it, yet lsd says: Sweep frequency at start (Hz). 2031 Sweep frequency at end (Hz). 6031 Plot of the correlated chirp (2-6kHz.) with agc (.015sec). Plot of the envelope with filter (100x700Hz.) and agc (.015sec). Plot of envelope with swell filter, mix (1+1), filter (100x700Hz.), agc(.015sec) Depth Plot of envelope with swell filter, mix (1+1), filter (100x700Hz.), agc(.015sec) mkenv - Make an envelope file from a correlate file. gzipped raw file 2009_275_1825_70873_3.5kHz_000.sgy
