Load Seismic: How is velocity data scaled?

Description:
I want to input a velocity cube and want to know how the velocities are scaled
at time of load.

Solution:
Documentation says that it computes the minumum and maximum values, then
divides it according  to whether its 8, 16, or 32 bit data. For example, minimum
velocity of 5000 and maximum value of 15000 gives a range of 10000 ft/s. It will
take this when loading as 8 bit, and create a scale dividing 10000 by 256(2^8).
Each velocity value would increment by 39 ft/s.
