ProMAX Introduction
Interface ProMAX is using 3 button, left, right and middle one.

Generally, Promax is formed by 3 level structure of workspace; AREA, LINE, FLOW.

When the first time user make the project, user has to define that 3 level of workspace. AREA
must be defined as the name of surveys area. The second one is to define the line of the surveys
seismic. Finally FLOW must be defined as step-by-step from seismic processing.

B. ProMAX Workspace
1. Workspace Area
Some Command are using in the workspace area are Select, Add, Delete, Rename,
Copy, and Permission.

Choose Add Command in the area workspace window to define the new area by
clicking the left handed mouse and then type name of the area and then press enter.
2. Workspace Line
Having a common with the workspace area, choose the add option and then type
name of the line surveys name.

3. Workspace Flow
There are some of the command in workspace flow doesnt exist in other workspace,
such as Dataset and Database.
Dataset

: Showing the list of entire dataset that are or have been generated at the
existing line.

Database : Allow the user to access all files on the parameters which have been
generated at the existing line.

Choose Add command on the flow workspace window and the type name of flow
from the processing flow to be done and the press enter.
4. To Make and Execute the Flow
By clicking on the name of flow that the user has been made, user will go to the new
editing window. Generally that window is made by 3 part ;
a. Available Process
This part is showing some of the command that available in this section to process
seismic data.
b. Editable Process
This Part is showing all commands that have been chosen by the user which
available in available process section. All the commands that have been selected
into the editable process is like an algorithm, which means at this section will be
run sequentially from up to bottom.

c. Parameter Specification
Parameter Specification window is showing all the paramaters that have been
selected by user to execute the command.
Generally, seismic processing flow can be made and executed with step by step
like this below:
a. Select the subflow that is required in available process and then put it into editable
process. User can search all subflow by typing initial or full name of subflow.
b. Click MB2 on one of subflow which have been listed in editing flow section to show
the window that contains all the parameters that must be determined by user to
execute the flow.
c. Some of subflow which contained in editing flow section can be canceled or waived
by clicking MB1 in one of the subflow that user wants to cancel. And then followed
by clicking MB1 on Delete at top of the editing flow section.
d. All of the command that have been listed and had all the parameter set in editing flow
section can be run by clicking Execute

C. ProMAX Processing Tutorial

1. Input Data
At this section, Seismic Raw Data will be read. Pada flow ini dilakukan pembacaan
raw data seismik, according to parameter which have been defined by seismic data
tape.
a. Input raw seismic data in accordance with the format of data storage media (tape)
that has been determined. Suppose the raw data is stored in SEG-Y format, then
commands used are SEG-Y Input.
b. Give the name on the output dataset raw data as RAW DATA using Disc Data
Output.
