About¶

The LAS file format is a public file format for the exchange of well log data. The format includes a large header section followed by a block of depth indexed data columns. The irregular structure of the format poses a challenge for most text parsing tools. The goal of the las-geoh5 package is to leverage the existing lasio python package for reading and writing LAS files in order to convert in and out of the hdf5 format using geoh5py.
The recommended usage of the las-geoh5 package for most users is through the Geoscience ANALYST software. Within ANALYST, the import and export routines can be executed through menu system or a ui.json interface. To learn more about importing and exporting drillhole data with las-geoh5, see the Importing LAS Files and Exporting LAS Files pages.
