DESCRIPTION

     morfgam reads  two  mbs-compatible  depth-interval  velocity
     fields,  a  set  of  semplance panels, horizon picks in xsd-
     format, horizon-based semblance  picks  in  xsd-format,  and
     some  parameters to control the velocity inversion.  It out-
     puts both an updated set of  semplance  panels  and  updated
     semblance picks.

     morfgam gets the input and output file names and  parameters
     from the command line.

  Command line arguments
     -N1vtap1
          Enter the name of  the  mbs-compatible  velocity  field
          that  was used in the migration after typing -N1.  This
          file is usually created with a velocity  model-building
          program  like either xsd, xvedit, or velin.  This input
          file should include the complete path name if the  file
          resides    in    a    different   directory.    Example
          -N/b/vsp/dummy tells  the  program  to  look  for  file
          'dummy' in directory 'vsp' stored on the 'b' disk.

     -N2vtap2
          Enter the name of  the  mbs-compatible  velocity  field
          that was updated by residual analysis after typing -N2.
          This file is usually created  with  a  velocity  model-
          building  program  like  either  xsd, xvedit, or velin.
          This input file should include the complete  path  name
          if  the file resides in a different directory.  Example
          -N/b/vsp/dummy tells  the  program  to  look  for  file
          'dummy'  in  directory  'vsp'  stored  on the 'b' disk.
          This field is not required if iopt=2.

     -N3ntap
          Enter the name of the usp-compatible  semblance  panels
          after  typing  -N3.   This file is usually created with
          program xsdprop.  This input file  should  include  the
          complete  path  name if the file resides in a different
          directory.  Example -N/b/vsp/dummy tells the program to
          look  for file 'dummy' in directory 'vsp' stored on the
          'b' disk.

     -Ootap
          Enter the updated output velocity file name immediately
          after  typing  -O.   The output semblance file requires
          the full path name (see above).

     -rsrs
          Enter the starting record number after typing -rs.

     -rere
          Enter the ending record number after typing -re.

     -nsns
          Enter the starting trace after typing -ns.

     -nene
          Enter the ending trace after typing -ne.

     -ioptiopt
          Enter either a 1 or a 2 after typing iopt.  By  way  of
          explanation, remember that spectra (or gamma scans) can
          be produced after depth migration.  Gamma is a ratio of
          new  slowness  to  old  slowness.  If you produce a new
          velocity field through some type  of  inversion  (i.e.,
          Dix),  you  can compute what the new spectra would look
          like if you computed new spectra after residual moveout
          with  the new field.  This program can approximate this
          procedure.  In fact, that is what opt=1  does.   Opt=2,
          on  the  other  hand,  can  produce  spectra  that  are
          constant-slowness scans as  a  function  depth.   These
          slowness scans can be turned into velocity spectra with
          slow2vel and can also be converted to be a function  of
          time instead of depth with panlz2t.  (Default=1).

     -vminvmin
          Enter the minimum velocity for the output slowness scan
          after  typing  -vmin.  Thi s argument is used only when
          iopt=2.

     -vmaxvmax
          Enter the maximum velocity for the output slowness scan
          after typing -vmin.  Thi

     -P1stkpick
          Enter the first input xsd pick  file  name  immediately
          after  typing  -P1.  This file should have been created
          by program xsdintrp on an xsd segment file.  To  create
          the  xsd  segment  file,  you  should  plot  the depth-
          migrated stack with program xsd, and pick the key  hor-
          izons  on  the  stack.  If you have an xsd segment file
          from a time-section, you can  convert  the  picks  from
          time to depth with program xsdt2d.

     -P2sempick
          Enter the second input xsd pick file name after  typing
          -P2.   This  file  should  have been created by program
          xsdintrp on an xsd segment file.   To  create  the  xsd
          segment  file, you should plot the records from program
          horgam with program xsd,  and  pick  the  maximum  sem-
          blances along each key horizon.

     -P3smbpcko
          Enter the output xsd pick file name after  typing  -P3.
          This file will map onto the output semblance panels and
          will reflect the velocities  of  the  updated  velocity
          field.

     -dgammadgamma
          Enter the increment between  gammas.   The  default  is
          0.20.   If  you  have 30 gammas, then the default gamma
          scans will be +/- 30 percent because  15  (30/2)  times
          .020  is  .3.  The gamma value is a ratio of new to old
          slownesses.  If gamma is  smaller  than  one,  the  new
          slowness will be less than the old slowness; therefore,
          the velocities are implied to be faster.

     -ngammangamma
          Enter the number of gamma scans.  The  default  is  the
          number of traces per input record.

     -ppow
          Enter the exponent for dix inversion.  An  exponent  of
          2, implies rms velocities, and an exponent of 1 implies
          average velocities.  Only values between 1  and  2  are
          legitimate.  The default is .1.

     -V   Enter the command line argument '-V' to get  additional
          printout.

     -?   Enter this (or '-?' if you are running in  c-shell)  to
          get  online  help.   The  program  will terminate after
          printing this.

     -h   Enter this option to get online help.  The program will
          terminate after printing this.
