file_tools

For subsetting: the file_tools module reads .apdv or gmf files and creates a simplified version by first deleting all the lines where the parameter data is flagged as missing. Then it keeps every nth line of the file starting with the first line. This is very useful when you have an overly large data file that is causing the kriging to choose all points from the same local region.

For refining: the file_tools module reads .pgf files and removes duplicate material values on the same boring so that materials are not over defined. If the topmost material in a Boring is not duplicated an additional sample will be added to the boring.
