Utilities Menu

This menu facilitates access to the following utility tools:

• Calculate Channel Statistics computes statistics for each line, and for all lines in the database;
• Create Group-By Field creates group-by fields;
• Create Spectra Cluster Field for sorting spectra for NASVD analysis based on their shape;
• Calculate Dose Rate from fully-processed K, U and Th elemental concentrations;
• Calculate Radioelement Ratios from the fully-processed K, U and Th elemental concentrations;
• Save Nasvd-Smoothed Spectra saves the smoothed spectra to a new 256-band database field;
• Sum Spectra to 256 Channels sums multichannel spectra (that are a multiple of 256 channels) down to 256 channels for processing by GammaSpec;
• Window Spectra sums spectra over a user-specified window. The window counts are corrected for live time and saved to the database as a new field;
• Interpolate Nulls removes nulls from ancillary data fields. The only database fields that may contain nulls are the x and y coordinate fields;
• Insert Nulls re-inserts nulls previously removed using Interpolate Nulls.

All output and messages from the Utilities tools are directed to the Main Window.
