Help and Resources for Seequent Central

Seequent Central helps your geoscience team work better by bringing together data and communications in a shared, version-controlled space where you can discuss your projects in the 3D context of your models.

This brief introduction to Seequent Central and the Central Portal is intended to help you get started if you have received an invitation to a Central server and tell you about the resources available to help you become familiar with working in Central. This introduction is divided into:

• Central Portal Introduction
• Receiving an Invitation
• The Projects List
• Visualising Data and Collaborating With the Team
• Uploading Data to the Central Data Room
• Learning and Troubleshooting Resources

Central Portal Introduction

The Central Portal is where you can:

	Get a high-level view of all the Central projects you’ve been assigned.
	Look at more detailed information about a project, such as its history, who has access to it and what data is associated with the product. A project’s dashboard also provides an overview of the conversations going on about the project.
	Visualise project data in 3D and discuss it with other team members.

Receiving an Invitation

When you receive an email saying you have been granted access to your organisation’s Central server, click the link to open the Central Portal. Follow the prompts to either create a new Seequent ID or sign in using your existing Seequent ID.

The Projects List

Once you have signed in, the list of projects you have been granted access to will be displayed. If you have not yet been assigned any projects, you may have to wait for your Central Admin to assign you some.

Once you have been assigned some projects, they will appear in the list:

Uploading Data to the Central Data Room

Each Central project has its own repository of data files related to that project, called the Data Room. Data in the Data Room can be organised by version, and data can be uploaded to and downloaded from the Data Room using the Central Portal.

See Storing and Accessing Data in the Project Data Room for information about accessing the Central Data Room from the Central Portal.
