2D Batch Import Rules

You can import individual 2D lines or a batch of 2D lines with each import pass. To select more than one file, hold the <Ctrl> key on your keyboard while you left-click on additional filenames in the Open SEG-Y Files dialog box.

On the Application toolbar, select | Import Seismic (SEGY) to open the Open SEG-Y Files dialog box.

Check every file for trace data type and import format and note any differences between the files. Decide how to batch import them most efficiently. During the import process, you will be able to remove SEG-Y files that do not belong in your batch.

We recommend you use Divestco Workstation-Ready SEG-Y format.

Rules

All 2D SEG-Y files in a batch must have UTMUniversal Transverse Mercator or State Plane x/y coordinate information in the trace headers or have a survey file that contains this information. Each import pass can use only one of these methods.
All 2D SEG-Y files in a batch must be written in the same trace data type. For example, all 32-bit IBM big-endian or 16-bit IEEE little-endian, etc.
All 2D SEG-Y files in a batch must be readable using the same import format. For example, same byte locations for start time, shotpoints, etc.
All 2D SEG-Y files in a batch must be imported into the same project directory.

3D datasets must be imported individually.
