Tips
! Be sure the Surface Grid you specify has the same node dimensions and spacing in the X,Y directions as your input solid model.
Follow these steps to create a 2D map that displays the modeled P-data along a user-specified grid surface:
If you've selected Use Existing Model, RockWorks will load the information from the existing P-Data model (.RwMod file), and will proceed to diagram generation.
If you've selected Create New Model, the program will scan the project database and extract the XYZ points for all of the downhole measurements for the selected P-Data track. It will apply any source data filters you have requested.
The program will use the selected algorithm to create a solid model of the point-sampled downhole data representing geophysical, geotechnical measurements, etc. The completed model will be stored on disk under the indicated file name.
The program will then load the specified Surface Grid model. For each grid node, it will determine the P-Data model G value at the corresponding location in the solid model, and store that value in the output grid model. The program will then create the 2D map using the requested diagram settings, displaying it in a RockPlot2D tab in the Options window if requested.
! If the P-Data model looks OK and you just need to adjust one of the diagram settings, you don't need to keep re-interpolating the model. Choose Use Existing Model and browse for the .RwMod file to be used for the map.
