* Package name : segyio Version : 1.1.0 Upstream Author : Jørgen Kvalsvik <jo...@statoil.com> * URL : https://github.com/statoil/segyio * License : LGPL Programming Lang: C, Python Description : Simple SEG-Y library segyio is a fairly simple library for reading and writing SEG-Y files https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SEG_Y which extensively used geo sciences. The library is developed mostly according to our needs, but we'd love to build a community around embeddable, high quality libraries for geo sciences. We plan to extend language support beyond python in the future, once we have a use case for it. We have received some interest from various parties, and we already distribute both source code and binaries through pypi https://pypi.python.org/pypi/SegyIO The libraries are used daily by our scientists and developers. There are plenty of products that support reading and writing SEG-Y files, but most are bundled inside huge properietary applications, and few are fast and usable as libraries. What's needed is a debian entry, some packaging aid (we'd like to split the package into its core and its language extensions for Debian distribution), but we plan to maintain the source code ourselves in perpetuity. We're of course happy to take patches and to accomodate the need of distributions.
