Read and write Log ASCII Standard files with Python.

This is a Python 3.7+ package to read and write Log ASCII Standard
(LAS) files, used for borehole data such as geophysical, geological, or
petrophysical logs. It's compatible with versions 1.2 and 2.0 of the LAS file
specification, published by the [Canadian Well Logging
Society](https://www.cwls.org/products/#products-las). Support for LAS 3 is 
[being worked on](https://github.com/kinverarity1/lasio/issues/5).

lasio is primarily for reading and writing data and metadata to and from 
LAS files. It is designed to read as many LAS files as possible, including
those containing common errors and non-compliant formatting. It can be used
directly, but you may want to consider using some other packages, depending
on your priorities:

- [welly](https://github.com/agile-geoscience/welly) is a Python package that 
  uses lasio for I/O but provides a **lot** more functionality aimed at working
  with curves, wells, and projects. I would recommend starting there in most 
  cases, to avoid re-inventing the wheel!
- [lascheck](https://github.com/MandarJKulkarni/lascheck) is focused on
  checking whether your LAS file meets the specifications.
- [lasr](https://github.com/donald-keighley/lasr) is an R package which 
  is designed to read large amounts of data quickly from LAS files; this is 
  a great thing to check out if speed is a priority for you, as lasio is not 
  particularly fast.
- LiDAR surveys are also called "LAS files", but they are quite different and
  lasio will not help you -- check out [laspy](https://github.com/laspy/laspy)
  instead.

lasio [stopped](https://github.com/kinverarity1/lasio/issues/364) 
supporting Python 2.7 in August 2020. The final version of lasio with Python 2.7 support 
is version 0.26.

## Code of conduct

See our [code of conduct](https://lasio.readthedocs.io/en/latest/contributing.html#code-of-conduct).

## Quick start

For the minimum working requirements, you'll need numpy installed. Install
lasio with:

```bash
$ pip install lasio
```

To make sure you have everything, use this to ensure pandas, chardet, and
openpyxl are also installed:

```bash
$ pip install lasio[all]
```

Example session:

```python
>>> import lasio
```

You can read the file using a filename, file-like object, or URL:

```python
>>> las = lasio.read("sample_rev.las")
```

Data is accessible both directly as numpy arrays

```python
>>> las.keys()
['DEPT', 'DT', 'RHOB', 'NPHI', 'SFLU', 'SFLA', 'ILM', 'ILD']
>>> las['SFLU']
array([ 123.45,  123.45,  123.45, ...,  123.45,  123.45,  123.45])
>>> las['DEPT']
array([ 1670.   ,  1669.875,  1669.75 , ...,  1669.75 ,  1670.   ,
        1669.875])
```

and as ``CurveItem`` objects with associated metadata:

```python
>>> las.curves
[CurveItem(mnemonic=DEPT, unit=M, value=, descr=1  DEPTH, original_mnemonic=DEPT, data.shape=(29897,)),
CurveItem(mnemonic=DT, unit=US/M, value=, descr=2  SONIC TRANSIT TIME, original_mnemonic=DT, data.shape=(29897,)),
CurveItem(mnemonic=RHOB, unit=K/M3, value=, descr=3  BULK DENSITY, original_mnemonic=RHOB, data.shape=(29897,)),
CurveItem(mnemonic=NPHI, unit=V/V, value=, descr=4   NEUTRON POROSITY, original_mnemonic=NPHI, data.shape=(29897,)),
CurveItem(mnemonic=SFLU, unit=OHMM, value=, descr=5  RXO RESISTIVITY, original_mnemonic=SFLU, data.shape=(29897,)),
CurveItem(mnemonic=SFLA, unit=OHMM, value=, descr=6  SHALLOW RESISTIVITY, original_mnemonic=SFLA, data.shape=(29897,)),
CurveItem(mnemonic=ILM, unit=OHMM, value=, descr=7  MEDIUM RESISTIVITY, original_mnemonic=ILM, data.shape=(29897,)),
CurveItem(mnemonic=ILD, unit=OHMM, value=, descr=8  DEEP RESISTIVITY, original_mnemonic=ILD, data.shape=(29897,))]
```

Header information is parsed into simple HeaderItem objects, and stored in a
dictionary for each section of the header:

```python
>>> las.version
[HeaderItem(mnemonic=VERS, unit=, value=1.2, descr=CWLS LOG ASCII STANDARD -VERSION 1.2, original_mnemonic=VERS),
HeaderItem(mnemonic=WRAP, unit=, value=NO, descr=ONE LINE PER DEPTH STEP, original_mnemonic=WRAP)]
>>> las.well
[HeaderItem(mnemonic=STRT, unit=M, value=1670.0, descr=, original_mnemonic=STRT),
HeaderItem(mnemonic=STOP, unit=M, value=1660.0, descr=, original_mnemonic=STOP),
HeaderItem(mnemonic=STEP, unit=M, value=-0.125, descr=, original_mnemonic=STEP),
HeaderItem(mnemonic=NULL, unit=, value=-999.25, descr=, original_mnemonic=NULL),
HeaderItem(mnemonic=COMP, unit=, value=ANY OIL COMPANY LTD., descr=COMPANY, original_mnemonic=COMP),
HeaderItem(mnemonic=WELL, unit=, value=ANY ET AL OIL WELL #12, descr=WELL, original_mnemonic=WELL),
HeaderItem(mnemonic=FLD, unit=, value=EDAM, descr=FIELD, original_mnemonic=FLD),
HeaderItem(mnemonic=LOC, unit=, value=A9-16-49, descr=LOCATION, original_mnemonic=LOC),
HeaderItem(mnemonic=PROV, unit=, value=SASKATCHEWAN, descr=PROVINCE, original_mnemonic=PROV),
HeaderItem(mnemonic=SRVC, unit=, value=ANY LOGGING COMPANY LTD., descr=SERVICE COMPANY, original_mnemonic=SRVC),
HeaderItem(mnemonic=DATE, unit=, value=25-DEC-1988, descr=LOG DATE, original_mnemonic=DATE),
HeaderItem(mnemonic=UWI, unit=, value=100091604920, descr=UNIQUE WELL ID, original_mnemonic=UWI)]
>>> las.params
[HeaderItem(mnemonic=BHT, unit=DEGC, value=35.5, descr=BOTTOM HOLE TEMPERATURE, original_mnemonic=BHT),
HeaderItem(mnemonic=BS, unit=MM, value=200.0, descr=BIT SIZE, original_mnemonic=BS),
HeaderItem(mnemonic=FD, unit=K/M3, value=1000.0, descr=FLUID DENSITY, original_mnemonic=FD),
HeaderItem(mnemonic=MATR, unit=, value=0.0, descr=NEUTRON MATRIX(0=LIME,1=SAND,2=DOLO), original_mnemonic=MATR),
HeaderItem(mnemonic=MDEN, unit=, value=2710.0, descr=LOGGING MATRIX DENSITY, original_mnemonic=MDEN),
HeaderItem(mnemonic=RMF, unit=OHMM, value=0.216, descr=MUD FILTRATE RESISTIVITY, original_mnemonic=RMF),
HeaderItem(mnemonic=DFD, unit=K/M3, value=1525.0, descr=DRILL FLUID DENSITY, original_mnemonic=DFD)]
```

The data is stored as a 2D numpy array:

```python
>>> las.data
array([[ 1670.   ,   123.45 ,  2550.   , ...,   123.45 ,   110.2  ,   105.6  ],
       [ 1669.875,   123.45 ,  2550.   , ...,   123.45 ,   110.2  ,   105.6  ],
       [ 1669.75 ,   123.45 ,  2550.   , ...,   123.45 ,   110.2  ,   105.6  ],
       ...,
       [ 1669.75 ,   123.45 ,  2550.   , ...,   123.45 ,   110.2  ,   105.6  ],
       [ 1670.   ,   123.45 ,  2550.   , ...,   123.45 ,   110.2  ,   105.6  ],
       [ 1669.875,   123.45 ,  2550.   , ...,   123.45 ,   110.2  ,   105.6  ]])
```

You can also retrieve and load data as a ``pandas`` DataFrame, build LAS files
from scratch, write them back to disc, and export to Excel, amongst other
things.
