Creating Horizon Images in Batch
WOW interactively produces images of horizons, one at a time, for use as backdrops in
GIS applications. This process can optionally be run in batch to produce images for all
horizons in a specified project.
The script hrzImageBatch has the following usage:
hrzImageBatch owproj survey gtype ?xsize? ?clm? ?dir?
<owproj> OpenWorks project name
<survey> SeisWorks survey name – use All3D for all 3D surveys in the OpenWorks
project, dummy or repeat OpenWorks project name for all 2D lines
<gtype> SeisWorks survey type (2D/3D)
<xsize> approximate image width in pixels, default 600
<clm> optional SeisWorks color map (clm) file name, default is spectrum
<dir> optional directory to write to, default
$WOW_DATA_DIR/wow_images/<owproj>
The example below will create the .jpg and .jpgw images for horizons in 3D survey
colt in the /tmp directory. The images will be created using the rspectrum colormap
and will have a width of 1000 pixels:
prompt> hrzImageBatch SWDEVKIT colt 3D 1000 rspectrum.clm /tmp
Important note: handing spaces in arguments: If the survey name has spaces it is
necessary to quote and use braces, e.g.
prompt> hrzImageBatch SWDEVKIT "{colt survey}" 3D
The example below will create the .jpg and .jpgw images for horizons for all 2D lines
in the OpenWorks project minkit_ip in the default directory. The images will be created
using the default spectrum colormap and will have the default width of 600 pixels:
prompt> hrzImageBatch minkit_ip minkit_ip 2D
An alternative way to execute the horizon image creation is to use the HrzImage
graphical user interface. First source the WebApps environment then run HrzImage.
prompt> source $OWHOME/WebApps/templates/wow.login
(if C-shell)
prompt> . $OWHOME/WebApps/templates/wow.profile (if Bourne shell)
prompt> HrzImage
HrzImage may also be launched from the wowgui interface.
