The SEG Y file format is one of several standards developed by the Society of Exploration Geophysicists for storing
geophysical seismic data. Segpy is a package for reading, writing and manipulating SEG Y data in pure Python.

Segpy is a fork of the Segypy package originally put together by Thomas Mejer Hansen under an LGPL license. I was
unsuccessful in my attempts to contact Hansen in order to contribute improvements, hence the fork under a different name, which of course
remains under the LGPL license.

I have cleaned up the code towards being modern, idiomatic Python and made it compatible with Python 2 and Python 3.

Pull requests, bug reports and suggestions for improvements are most welcome!

The Ibm2Ieee conversion routines are developed and made availabe for SegyPY by Secchi Angelo, who thanks Howard
