3.3.1. Survey Index FileΒΆ
This file is input when forward modeling data. Using 4 columns, the observation file indexes the frequencies, transmitters and receivers used for each measurement. Each row defines a unique field measurement. The general format is as follows:
\(\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\; \vdots\)
Important
- Due to the way the forward problem is solved, it is imperative that the user sort the survey index file:
First by transmitter
Next by frequency
Then finally by receiver
Parameter Descriptions
tx_ind: The index corresponding to the desired transmitter within the transmitter file.
f_ind: The index corresponding to the desired frequency within the frequencies file.
rx_ind: The index corresponding to the desired receiver within the receiver file.
