Create a Model

The New Model procedure defines the working limits of the earth model.

A new Depth Model consists of a single block “Crustal Rock” with a flat bottom and a topographic surface that may vary in the X-direction, but is constant in the Y-direction. Outside of the area of interest, the model is extended to “infinity” in the +/-X and +/-Y directions to eliminate edge effects.

A new Time Model consists of a single block “Crustal Rock” with a flat bottom and a flat top at T=0. Outside of the area of interest, the model is extended to “infinity” in the +/-X and +/-Y directions to eliminate edge effects.

To Create a New Model

On the GM-SYS Profile > New Model menu, select New Depth Model or New Time Model. Enter a name in the Browse for GM-SYS 2D Document dialog. The New Model Creation dialog appears.
