Cross-Borehole example
In this example we are going to invert one of the example given in the R2 manual. The aim is to detect a hidden block in the bottom left of the picture as shown below: and this pictures:

it looks like wine32 is missing, you should install it.
multiarch needs to be enabled first. as root, please
execute "dpkg --add-architecture i386 && apt-get update &&
apt-get install wine32"
Then we will import the protocol.dat
file that was outputed by the
forward model with this geometry and invert it. Note what we also need
to import the electrodes position from a .csv file with 3 columns:x, y,
buried. The buried
column contains 1 if the electrode is buried and
0 if not.
k = Project(typ='R2')
k.createSurvey(testdir + 'protocol.dat', ftype='ProtocolDC')
k.importElec(testdir + 'elec.csv')
k.createMesh('trian', cl=0.5, cl_factor=20, fmd=20)
# cl is characteristic length, it defines the resolution of the mesh around the electrodes, the smaller, the finer
# cl_factor is how the mesh will grow away from the electrode
# NOTE that a too fine mesh (very small cl) will takes a lot of RAM
# but a too coarse mesh won't be able to resolve the target
k.zlim = [-20, 0]
k.showMesh()
k.invert()
k.showResults(sens=False, contour=True)
