Mar 1, 2026

March 2026 monthly work summary focusing on stability and data-scale rendering improvements in OpendTect. Delivered a critical fix for large multi-pickset rendering by changing the default OSG index arrays from uint16 to uint32, enabling correct display of datasets beyond small sizes. Completed Linux validation, code review by arnaud, and differential revision D18443. Result: more reliable visualization for large seismic datasets and reduced need for workarounds.

Feb 1, 2025

February 2025 (OpendTect/OpendTect): Delivered a new SimpleTextStreamProgressMeter to enable text-based progress reporting for attribute and volume processing, improving observability and external tooling integration. The progress stream is configurable and can be toggled via parameters, reducing integration friction for monitoring OXY attribute progress. Contributed under the commit 908403e1edb4091984069e85eedb305b3be83800, with the feature wired into the od_process_attrib workflow.

Jan 1, 2025

January 2025 monthly summary for OpendTect/OpendTect: Focused execution on reliability of 2D geometry data handling and Python plugin API readiness. Delivered fixes that prevent duplicate 2D geometry entries in the OMF, corrected errors when adding geometry IDs without data, and ensured 2D geometries render without requiring restarts. Also advanced ODBind Python plugin compatibility with API updates, including enhancements and updates to example notebooks and internal data handling. These efforts reduce workflow friction, improve data visibility, and strengthen plugin interoperability, contributing to faster data processing cycles and more robust toolchains.
