NAME
UU_magic.py
DESCRIPTION
takes Fort Hoofddijk (University of Utrecht) format magnetometer files and converts them to magic_measurements and er_samples.txt
SYNTAX
UU_magic.py [command line options]
OPTIONS
-f FILE: specify input file
-fpos FILE: specify stratigraphic position file (.saf format)
-F FILE: specify magic_measurements output file, default is: magic_measurements.txt
-Fsa FILE: specify output file, default is: er_samples.txt
-ncn NCON: specify naming convention: default is #1 below
-ocn OCON: specify orientation convention, default is #1 below
-mcd: specify sampling method codes as a colon delimited string: [default is: FS-FD:SO-POM]
FS-FD field sampling done with a drill
FS-H field sampling done with hand samples
FS-LOC-GPS field location done with GPS
FS-LOC-MAP field location done with map
SO-POM a Pomeroy orientation device was used
SO-ASC an ASC orientation device was used
SO-MAG orientation with magnetic compass
SO-SUN orientation with sun compass
-loc: location name, default="unknown"
-spc NUM : specify number of characters to designate a specimen, default = 0
-ins INST : specify instsrument name
INPUT FORMAT
Input files must be colon delimited:
"file_name", "instrument"
"specimen name","",az,pl,vol(cc),strike,dip
treatment,X,Y,Z,CSD,"yy-mm-dd","hh:mm"
Orientation convention:
[1] Lab arrow azimuth= mag_azimuth; Lab arrow dip=-dip
i.e., dip is degrees from vertical down - the hade [default]
[2] Lab arrow azimuth = mag_azimuth-90; Lab arrow dip = -dip
i.e., mag_azimuth is strike and dip is hade
[3] Lab arrow azimuth = mag_azimuth; Lab arrow dip = dip-90
e.g. dip is degrees from horizontal of drill direction
[4] Lab arrow azimuth = mag_azimuth; Lab arrow dip = dip
[5] Lab arrow azimuth = mag_azimuth; Lab arrow dip = 90-dip
[6] all others you will have to either customize your
self or e-mail ltauxe@ucsd.edu for help.
Magnetic declination convention:
Az is already corrected in file
Sample naming convention:
[1] XXXXY: where XXXX is an arbitrary length site designation and Y
is the single character sample designation. e.g., TG001a is the
first sample from site TG001. [default]
[2] XXXX-YY: YY sample from site XXXX (XXX, YY of arbitary length)
[3] XXXX.YY: YY sample from site XXXX (XXX, YY of arbitary length)
[4-Z] XXXXYYY: YYY is sample designation with Z characters from site XXX
[5] sample = site
[6] all others you will have to either customize your
self or e-mail ltauxe@ucsd.edu for help.
OUTPUT
output saved in magic_measurements.txt & er_samples.txt formatted files
will overwrite any existing files
