RAW Binary Lattice File .RAW, .BIN Export Automation Options
Since the Export Options dialog is not displayed when the program is driven from an automation script, an options string can be specified in the script. The string consists of comma-separated parameters, which specify the behavior of the various import options. A typical example would be:
" BlankMethod=BM_FIXED, FixedBlankValue=1.70141E+038"
This would indicate that the NoData value for a lattice or grid node is a custom value, and that value is equal to Surfer's NoData value.

SkipAfter |
Use application-supplied scaling parameters |
No |
|
StartOffset |
Offset of first data node in file. |
0 |
|
BigEndian |
True if data are in Motorola MSB (big endian)format. False if data are in Intel LSB (little endian) format. |
False |
|
IndexOrder |
Index order: 0="X, then Y, then Z" 1="Y, then X, then Z" 2="Z, then X, then Y" 4="X, then Z, then Y" 5="Y, then Z, then X" 6="Z, then Y, then X". |
0 |
|
BlankMethod |
Method for assigning values to NoData nodes: BM_DATA_MIN = Minimum value of the lattice BM_DATA_MAX = Maximum value of the lattice. BM_TYPE_MIN = Minimum value of the inherent data type. BM_TYPE_MAX = Maximum value of the inherent data type. BM_FIXED = A user specified value |
BM_TYPE_MAX |
|
FixedBlankValue |
Used if BlankMethod is BM_FIXED |
No |
