Database Management System
October/04
While the database provides centralized field data storage, a corresponding system was required
to manage the information on multiple maps and cross-sections that make up the interpretation of
the data. VIEWLOG Project files provide the key linkage between the database, the geologic
interpretation, and the numerous maps and cross-sections. Most important, Project File objects
link the following:
•
Raw data stored in the database
•
Display appearance for plan, section and 3-D views
•
Interpretation and interpolation results, and
•
Processing and analysis functions
Setting up a Project
Creating a Project file will allow links with the database and common elements of the geologic
model to be stored. Objects in the Project file can be viewed in multiple maps and cross sections
at the same time. While multiple maps can be open at the same time, only one project can be
open in VIEWLOG at one time.
Registering a Base Map
It is important to remember to register your base map(s) and Cross Sections in the Project
Manager. Registering a map links the map to the Project file.
Note that a Project file can be linked to multiple map and cross section files. Updating a Project
file will automatically update all linked maps and cross sections.
