Life is better in color
The editor in LAS Explorer colorizes the various elements of an LAS file differently. You'll see LAS files in a new light - and never want to go back to seeing them in black and white again.
Formatting
LAS files are text files. So they're easy to read, right? Except after a few edits, columns don't line up, and the curves are numbered wrong. Now you can format an entire LAS file with one keystroke.
Validation and repair
Is your LAS file valid? Find out if it conforms 100% to the standard. Or maybe you just want to know if there is a data issue that will cause a problem when you go to use this file in another program. LAS Explorer will help you detect and fix errors.
Latitude and longitude
Edit and validate latitude and longitude coordinates. Reverse geocode to get location data. Plot the well on Google Maps, or a group of wells on Google Earth.
Import and export
Run the friendly import wizard to create a new LAS file from your CSV data. The export wizard will help you export it to Microsoft Excel, with numbers and dates formatted as such, and nulls as blank cells or values in red.
Multiple LAS files
You have a folder with hundreds of LAS files, but what is in them? This is a killer feature, and why "Explorer" is in the product name. It's just like Windows File Explorer, but it knows all about LAS files. Show mnemonics and curves as columns, make batch changes, and more.
Batch changes
You can perform a change across multiple LAS files, such as renaming a curve or parameter, setting a parameter value, or fixing the direction on latitude and longitude coordinates.
Plots
Press Shift+F7 to create a plot with one track for each curve to quickly get a visual feel for the data. Add curves using curve templates, constants, fills (with lithology patterns), text, lines, images, and arrows. Export to a .PNG file for use anywhere.
Curves and data
Just need to do some simple cleanup? You may be able to do what you need in LAS Explorer, saving you the time of having to jump to another tool once you've validated and eyeballed your file. It's easy to reorder or remove curves, convert units, change NULL, canonicalize names, and more.
Despike, resample, merge
Despike a curve visually using a plot. Resample a file to a different depth interval. Merge two files, resampling on the fly if needed.
Time based files
In LAS Explorer, time-based files are first class citizens! Often the time values in an LAS file are not in ISO 8601 format. If you work with time-based files a lot, you will love the date/time repair wizard, and the ability to quickly plot your data on a time axis, like it was meant to be.
Ease of use
Users love LAS Explorer because it is so easy to use. The user interface is simple and intuitive. There are keyboard shortcuts for power users, but everything is in the menu. You will be productive immediately!
