LAS File and Well Data Viewer
Description

This web application allows the user to plot Digital Log ASCII Standard (LAS) version 2.0 Files that are on the KGS Server. Each well has different combination of well data that will be included in the Well Profile Plot, i.e.,

• LAS Log Data - Log curves stored in the LAS File.
• Tops Data - Top picks that identify the Stratigraphic Horizons
• Measured Core Data - Porosity, Permeability, Grain Density, etc
• Geologist Report - Sample log reports typed in for a few wells

LAS File Information, Tops Data, Measured Core Data and Geologist Report File Information are retrieved from the Kansas Geological Survey's (KGS) ORACLE Database. This web application retrieves the data from the database as XML (eXtensible Markup Language) stream that are parsed into data structures. There are a number of XML data files that are used to help process the data from the KGS Database, e.g., KGS Tools Hierarchy XML File which holds the KGS Standard LAS Curves List with the tools sorted by default tracks and the order of plotting preference and a KGS Standard LAS Curves XML File which holds all the mnemonics of LAS Curves that are presently known and maps them to a KGS Standard LAS Curve, which the Hierarchy XML uses to sort the digital LAS File Log Curves.
