Implicit Modelling

Model Resolution Improvements

Vein, Fault, Contact and Geology Modeller tools now include a Dynamic model resolution that is automatically adjusted to the density of the data, providing better than Superfine resolution in much less time.

When Dynamic is selected, an Adaptive Tensioning check box option is also enabled. Select this option when trying to model problematic data, for example, a surface which undulates very rapidly.

Dynamic replaces the Auto resolution option provided in previous releases.

 

Surface Control

On the Options tab of the Contact Lithology Modelling form, the Surface Control check box provided in previous releases is now replaced by an Avoid drillhole option. This is the default behaviour, which is to avoid drillholes without contacts by automatically placing the surface either above or below the holes in such a way as to minimise the curvature of the surface.

A new Ignore drillhole option has also been added which disables surface control functionality, allowing the contact surface to pass through drillholes without intercepts.

Geology Modeller

The Geology Modeller has been improved to produce better results when a low number of sample points exist in a fault block.
