File utilities¶
This section provides information on how to use the other Python modules in the tools
package to help manage gprMax files.
inputfile_old2new.py¶
This modules assists with the process of migrating input files from the syntax of the old (pre v.3) version of gprMax to the new syntax. It will produce a new input file with the old syntax (attempted to be!) translated to the new syntax. Usage (from the top-level gprMax directory) is:
python -m tools.inputfile_new2old inputfile
where inputfile
is the name of input file including the path.
outputfiles_merge.py¶
gprMax produces a separate output file for each trace (A-scan) in a B-scan. This module combines the separate output files into a single file, and offers to remove the separate output files afterwards. Usage (from the top-level gprMax directory) is:
python -m tools.outputfiles_merge basefilename modelruns
where:
basefilename
is the base name file of the output file series, e.g. formyoutput1.out
,myoutput2.out
the base file name would bemyoutput
modelruns
is the number of output files to combine
