1 GeoModeller User Manual Tutorial case study D (GIS ) 1 Tutorial case study D (GIS ) 3D GeoModeller User Manual and Tutorials Author: Desmond Fitzgerald, Intrepid Geophysics Editor: Claire Edwards, Intrepid Geophysics Update V2012: Stewart Hore In this case study: Tutorial case study D (GIS ) D1 Tutorial Overview Making use of existing 2D maps, Arc Shape files, etc. In this tutorial: D1 Tutorial Overview D1 Stage 1 Start the project, define properties, choose projection and load DTM D1 Stage 2 Open points list editor and shape files D1 Stage 3 Add geological formation A1 and assign shape as a boundry for this unit D1 Extensions to Geophysics Prior interpretations of Geology captured in GIS This takes the form of many parts such as Solid geology Dykes Faults Commonly in attributed shape files We wish to review this information in the context of building a 3D model, but only that which falls within the project box May have to convert the projections May have to weed or thin the line work as it is overspecified for what it is May have to do some graphical adjustments before acceptance into the model This data has to have added input from the user as to exactly what it represents in a 3DGeomodel context Solution Bring GIS data into the Plan view Points Editor Only show the data that falls in the project box - clip to the edges Allow the User to edit/review and then classify exactly what the GIS data represents Geology boundary Fault Commit new data to the model

2 GeoModeller User Manual Tutorial case study D (GIS ) 2 Bowen Basin Example 2003 study area, approximately 200 * 200km in Queensland Compliation of all geophysics, topography Interpreted geology, faults, dykes, anomalies Mostly captured in ArcShape files with Coordinate System of GDA94/Map Grid of Australia, Zone 55 Stages of the tutorial D1 Stage 1 Start the project, define properties, choose projection and load DTM D1 Stage 2 Open points list editor and shape files D1 Stage 3 Add geological formation A1 and assign shape as a boundry for this unit D1 Stage 1 Start the project, define properties, choose projection and load DTM D1 Stage 1 Steps 1 Create a project with the following parameters: Name: TutorialD (Note: No spaces!) Authors: your name Description: a comment of your choice Projection: GDA94/MGA zone 55 Unit: m Geographical area: XMin = XMax = YMin = YMax = ZMin = ZMax =1000. Choose menu option Project > New. 3D GeoModeller displays the Project properties dialog box. Complete the fields as given above and choose OK. 3D GeoModeller displays the Project creation successful dialog box.

3 GeoModeller User Manual Tutorial case study D (GIS ) 3 2 Load DTM with paremameters as shown below. Create topographic surface From a DTM with the following properties: Name: Topography Filename: GeoModeller\tutorial\CaseStudyD\TutorialD1\Data\dtm2.ers Description: a comment of your choice Choose From a DTM in the Project creation successful dialog box. 3D GeoModeller displays the Load topography from an ASCII grid dialog box. Enter the Name and Description fields as shown above and choose Browse to navigate to GeoModeller\tutorial\CaseStudyD\TutorialD1\Data\dtm2.ers Choose OK. 3D GeoModeller opens a 3D Viewer, which shows the bounding box of your project. 3 Save the project. From the main menu, choose Project > Save As, navigate to the directory where you want to save your work, assign a project name and save. Note that a completed version of the tutorial is available in GeoModeller\tutorial\CaseStudyD\TutorialD1\Completed_Project\ TutorialD1.xml. Do not overwrite it. D1 Stage 2 Open points list editor and shape files D1 Stage 2 Steps 1 Bring up the points list editor, expand to full table view and open a shape file using the file option. On the Points List Editor toolbar choose Float or dock the Points List Editor. From the Show Points List information or table menu in the toolbar choose Table.

Choose Browse and navigate to GeoModeller\tutorial\CaseStudyD\TutorialD1\Data\interp\ geology_solid.shp Choose Open Dock the points list editor by clicking on Float or dock the Points List Editor. D1 Stage 3 Add geological formation A1 and assign shape as a boundry for this unit D1 Stage 3 Steps 1 Create a geological formation with the following parameters: Name: FormationD Colour: Light blue (RGB 0; 255; 255) Choose main menu option Geology > Formations > Create Edit. In the Create Edit geology formations dialog box, use the following sequence: Enter the Name. Specify the Colour (Double click the Colour field and select the colour from the palette. Use the RGB tab if you want to get it exact, but this is not essential). Choose Add. Choose Close when finished.

FormationD will be selected in the Geological Formations and Faults menu box as it is the only formation/fault Choose Create and then Close. The shape should now be blue. 3 Add a second shape with high threshold and assign the shape to FormationD. From the Points List Editor toolbar choose Float or dock the Points List Editor. Enter 16 into the Segment field and press Enter. Set the Treshold level to High using the threshold slider (See below). There should now be 50 points in the points list. Choose Float or dock the Points List Editor to dock the points list editor. From the Structural toolbar, select Create geology data. FormationD will be selected in the Geological Formations and Faults menu box. Choose Create and then Close. The second shape should now be blue. D1 Stage 3 Threshold discussion The Threshold slider bar is used for weeding out unnecessary precision in the representation of the shape. Low threshold includes all original points, while high threshold gives about one third of the points without generally degrading the shape too much. D1 Stage 3 General Comments This scheme relies on reliable geolocation of all your spatial data from different sources Full projection and datum conversion facilities, are provided to do the on-the-fly changes Can be used for ASCII csv files, Intrepid line and point datasets, Geosoft gdb. Is extensible to MapInfo with some work on a driver Only proven for ArcShape files as yet

6 GeoModeller User Manual Tutorial case study D (GIS ) 6 D1 Extensions to Geophysics Euler This scheme has potential for Euler Clustered Depth Estimates to be managed in a Plan View Threshold changed to pick on reliability Geophysics Flight Line Profile/Sections One could easily imagine selected flight lines from an airborne survey Each line has a Geomodeller section These sections generated automatically A method such as Naudy giving possible 2D magnetric Dykes, dip, width and susceptibility Threshold used to control Similarity Image Processing Geophysical Grid Enhancements An additional layer in the plan view to cover the basic rendering and stretching of normal geophysical grid data sets Not just the of a jpeg image A rapid depth estimator, such as "PotentQ" under control of the user for points of interest
