Feature Request: Intuitive Receiver Selection

[jocrocker]

Problem Summary

When performing 2D MASW testing, researchers may choose to use one long array to collect data. This array can then be analyzed as multiple smaller "sub-arrays" when processing the data, such that multiple 1D Vs profiles are obtained from one large array. However, swprocess does not currently allow for analyzing subsets of data when importing su or segy files.

Proposed Solution

To allow for analyzing subsets of data, it would be helpful to add an option that allows the user to select specific receivers. This would allow for users to have more control over the length of their array as well as the number of receivers they are interested in analyzing.

Thank you for the suggestion. Adding this is a great idea.

The most recent commit on the dev branch (d6727c8) implements this feature. The change allows the user to set a min_offset and max_offset in the MASW settings dictionary. During MASW process the minimum and maximum offsets are used to remove sensors that are at offsets less than min_offset and greater than max_offset. While early tests indicate the implementation is working properly, it has not been rigorously tested, so please use this early implementation with caution. This feature will be tested further and included in the next release of swprocess.
