Import Drillhole Data

During drilling, the geologist acquires and integrates data from different sources and formats. The Drillhole system automatically detects the type of data that is being imported, including:

• Drillhole (collar) locations

• Surveys

• From to Data

• Point Data

There are two ways to define drillholes and add data to your project in Drillhole:

• Import data already stored in CSV/text or XLS/database data format. A common example is a geochemical assay file, which is commonly delivered to you on disk or via email by an assay laboratory in Excel XLS format. Depending on project needs, you may also initially have geological data, collar data or survey data in text or data files.

• Manually enter data. If you are performing a grassroots exploration project, you may only have one or two holes to work with initially. In this case, you may just want to add some basic collar location or projected survey information to your project.
