General Features of the Import Wizard

• Automatically detects trace data endian and floating point type
• Allows you to view header contents
• Saves custom import formats for future use
• Previews map locations before you import
• Provides statistical analysis of floating point scale factor
• Previews floating point scaling to prevent clipping
• Outputs 8-bit, 16-bit, 32-bit IEEE, or retain 32-bit IBM formats
• Drops or retains dead traces

2D Import Features of the Import Wizard

• Imports batches of 2D data
• Imports using UTMUniversal Transverse Mercator or State Plane x/y locations in trace headers or imports using locations from ASCII UTM coordinate file
• Recognizes and corrects most shotpoint numbering and x/y coordinate problems

3D Import Features of the Import Wizard

• Imports with in-line/cross-line and UTM x/y coordinates in trace headers
• Imports with only in-line/cross-lines in trace headers
• Imports with only x/y coordinates in trace headers
• Imports rectangular datasets by entering three known locations
• Imports a subset of your 3D in-line/cross-lines (To be implemented)
• Defines in-line/cross-line labels
