SDTS Rename Utility
08/07/01 SDTS_Rename v1.01 by Frank Weed II of 3D Nature LLC
Recently, the USGS SDTS DEMs were given over to www.gisdatadepot.com for distribution. One of the annoying changes with this is that the downloaded files are given random numeric names, and viewing a log in program such as Go!Zilla doesn't help, since all the downloads are sent by script from a common directory. This is an attempt to bring some order back to the downloaded DEMs.
Download your DEMs and the associated text file to some directory. Then change to that directory & run this program. This should recurse through all subdirs too. You'll change your file names from something like:
8925_1456655.DEM.SDTS.TAR.GZ
8925_1456655.DEM.SDTS.TXT
to something meaningful like:
10_2_0.1m_Telluride_CO.tar.gz
10_2_0.1m_Telluride_CO.Txt
(hres / level / vres & units / quadname / state)
