Create New AOI

"Create new AOI" is selected.

Enter a name for the new AOI.

Browse to select an existing polygon file that defines the boundary of the new AOI.

Specify the azimuth along which the profiles will be extracted for modeling.

The profiles will be parallel to one of the sides of the 3D model.

Profile Selection

Select allows you to click on the index map to select locations for profile extraction.

Clicking on selected profiles in Deselect mode will remove them from the selection list. In either mode, you may click-and-drag to toggle multiple profiles.

Clear All will deselect all profiles, regardless of the current mode.

When checked, extraneous points will be removed from the horizons when they are added to the profiles.

A point will be removed from the line if its removal causes the direction of the line segment to deviate by less than this amount.

The number of profiles selected for creation. This is a read-only field.

Click this button to create the selected profiles for editing.

Existing AOI

An existing AOI is selected from the list.

The polygon file that defines the boundary of the selected AOI.

The azimuth of the active profiles extracted for modeling.

The profiles will be parallel to one of the sides of the 3D model.

The grid spacing of the 3D model. Profiles are extracted along grid columns or rows.

The total number of active profiles extracted for modelling.

Unedited profiles are shown as solid black lines.

The number of active profiles that have been edited and saved, without warnings or errors.

These profiles are shown as solid green lines.

The number of active profiles that have been edited and saved, but have warnings.

These profiles are shown as solid yellow lines. Click on any yellow line to make it the current active profile and show any warnings.

The number of active profiles that have been edited and saved, but have errors.

These profiles are shown as solid red lines. Click on any red line to make it the current active profile and show any warnings or errors.

A list of horizons that have been changed in at least one saved profile.

Unsaved changes will not be detected.

The current active profile, with any warnings or errors in the profile displayed in the box below. It is shown on the index map as a thicker solid line.

Click on any active profile on the index map to make it the current active profile.

Check this box to keep all active profiles minimized, with the exception of the current active profile

Unchecking this box will enable active profiles to remain visible in the workspace, although they may be obscured by other model windows.

A scan of all saved active profile models will be triggered by clicking the Refresh button.

The information in this tool will then be updated.

All active profiles will be saved by clicking the Save 2D Models button, followed by a "Refresh" of the information.

If no errors are detected in any of the models, the Update 3D button will be enabled. Clicking it, will perform the following:

1. Each changed horizon will be sampled from all active profiles in the AOI.
2. The changes will be interpolated to create a change grid to fill the AOI.
3. The layer relief in the 3D model will be modified by the change grid.

Common Fields

Check this box to show all inactive profiles as dashed grey lines. You may generate an active profile by clicking on an inactive column/row.

Uncheck this box to prevent additional active profiles from being created.

Displays the name of the current background grid.

Check this box to show the full model area in the index map.

By default, this box is unchecked and the index map is zoomed in to the AOI.
