Geogiga | Front End

The Front End uses lazy loading. It only loads trace headers until you zoom into a specific time window, then fetches trace data. This allows viewing 1GB SEG-Y files on 8GB RAM systems—a smart design for field laptops.

How does the Front End stack up against alternatives like Seismic Unix (SU) or ReflexW?

Balances signal degradation over depth using Automatic Gain Control (AGC), trace balancing, divergence curves, and localized surgical muting. Geogiga Front End vs. Front End Express Geogiga Front End

Seismic data is inherently visual. A geophysicist looks at a "wiggle trace" or a variable density plot to identify arrivals, noise, and geological features. The Geogiga Front End excels here by offering:

It acts as the core gateway for sorting, cleaning, and formatting near-surface geophysical data. It prepares raw field files for downstream seismic inversion and interpretation software like Refractor, Reflector, or Surface. Field geophysicists utilize the application to convert multi-format raw records into uniform, geometry-assigned seismic traces. This critical first stage prevents errors before executing complex reflection, refraction, or tomographic workflows. Core Technical Capabilities The Front End uses lazy loading

Isolates real seismic responses from background rumble using high-pass, low-pass, band-pass, band-reject, and notch filters through custom Butterworth or Ormsby algorithms.

Unlike generic seismic viewers, the is optimized for high-density near-surface engineering projects. It allows geophysicists to load multiple data formats (SEG-2, SEG-Y, SAC, and proprietary Geogiga formats), apply gain adjustments, filter noise, and prepare data for advanced processing modules like Geogiga Seismic Pro or Geogiga MASW.
