Interactive data processing and analysis tool to compute the Curie point depth from aeromagnetic data using the method of Bouligand et al. (2009)
The user interface is really a work in progress for now. More to come soon.
pycpd is programmed in python 3 and was tested on a mac running python 3.5 installed via macports.
The following python mudules are needed to run the software
- numpy and scipy
- pandas
- PyQt5
- matplotlib basemap (https://matplotlib.org/basemap/)
- netCDF4 (https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf4-python)
- pyproj (https://github.com/jswhit/pyproj)
- pyfftw (https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pyFFTW)
- spectrum (http://www.thomas-cokelaer.info/software/spectrum/html/contents.html)
Run the following command in the source directory in order to use the maximum entropy method to estimate the spectra (c code wrapped with cython)
python setup.py build_ext --inplace
- Aeromagnetic data should be gridded on a cartesian grid with spatial units in meters
- Recognized formats are:
- netCDF (COARDS compliant)
- USGS sgd grid
- In order to display the map, the user is asked to enter coordinate projection information. This is done by giving a proj4 string (http://proj4.org), e.g. for coordinates projected in the Lambert conic conformal for Eastern Canada, the string is
+proj=lcc +lat_1=49 +lat_2=77 +lat_0=63 +lon_0=-92 +x_0=0 +y_0=0 +ellps=GRS80 +towgs84=0,0,0,0,0,0,0 +units=m +no_defs
Borehole data should be in a csv file with the same header as given in the Global Heat Flow Datababse of the International Heat Flow Commission (http://www.heatflow.und.edu/index2.html). An example file can be found at http://www.heatflow.und.edu/Global2010.csv. The first lines of this file are:
