klipvis Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Good day I have created a geological model from several surfer grids I imported in to RW. My 3D Strat model looks ok, but now I need to make about 80 sections through the model at 200m spacing. I have the lines I would like to use in ArcMap, I have also created a txt file with start and end XY point. How do I use this to create my sections?I also want to know if I can plot an outline of my model on the location chart. I have a shape file outline of my area (which is not square).Any help would be appreceated regards Wilhelm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klipvis Posted February 27, 2015 Author Share Posted February 27, 2015 Thank you for the reply. I got the background map to display. I cant really use the "create additional lines" comman because the lines are not all the same lenth. My study area has an odd shape becoming narrow on the 1 end. As far as I can tel I can only import 1 line at a time, run the process and then have to import the next line and start again? Wilhelm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Molly Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Hi Wilhelm, Please bear in mind that your project dimensions in RockWorks are square or rectangular, even if you clip your models to an irregular shape. So, the Create Additional Parallel Profiles option may be displaying the lines of section across the entire project space in the Profile Selection Map, but the output profile diagrams will display only the non-null values. If you have Level 5 of RockWorks, and if you know the coordinates of the profile endpoints, you may find it easier to write a script to create all of the profiles very quickly. You would define all of the details for the first profile in the script, and then simply define the new coordinates/new profile title/other changes for the other 80 diagrams. The RCL settings can be determined for 99% of the RockWorks menus by clicking on the small hammer icon in the upper-left corner and choosing Show RCL or Save to RCL. There is a quick tutorial for the RCL scripts on our website: https://www.rockware.com/product/caseStudies.php?id=165&category=14 It references RockWorks15 but pertains to RW16 as well.
