Back to Importing Text Data into a Solid ModelRockWorks stores solid models (.RwMod files) in a text and binary format. Note that all real number coordinate values are stored using a U.S. number format.
If you want to import data into a solid model using a text file, it should be composed of a header that lists information about the model dimensions and spacing, and a file body that contains "XYZG" data for each node in the model.
Here's how the header should look:
481875.00 <--- Xmin (western border)
482175.00 <--- Xmax (eastern border)
4399725.00 <--- Ymin (southern border)
4400025.00 <--- Ymax (northern border)
1682.00 <--- Zmin (lower border)
1770.00 <--- Zmax (upper border)
10.00 <--- X (East/West) node spacing
10.00 <--- Y (North/South) node spacing
2.00 <--- Z (Vertical) node spacing
The body of the file should contain four columns of tab delimited data listing data in the following order:
X(Easting) Y(Northing) Z(Elevation) G-Value
The "XYZG" rows can be listed in any order, and you must have a G-Value listed for every node in the model.
The G values in most solid models are real numbers that represent the extrapolated geochemical, geophysical, fracture proximity or other measured values. The G-values in stratigraphic and lithologic solids represent stratigraphy or lithology type, typically integers that correspond to declared G values in the project's Stratigraphy Type Table or Lithology Type Table. Boolean solid models contain G values of 0 or 1 only.
