Data Manager

Data manager provides access to any data object from the project database and allows to control its creation, update, delete, visibility and operations

Icons and visibility

The checkbox and icon next to each data object show whether it is – or can be – displayed in the active view:

  • Checkbox checked – the data is displayed in the active view window.
  • Transparent icon – the data can be visualized in the active window.
  • Gray icon – the data cannot be visualized in the active window type.
  • Expand arrow (>) – click to expand or collapse nested data categories.

Use the Filter field at the top of the panel to quickly find objects or folders by name and simplify navigation in large projects.

Sorting objects by name

Right-click a top-level data category and choose Sort by name to arrange its objects alphabetically. This option is available for the Wells, Horizons, Maps, Seismic 2D, Seismic 3D, Wavelets and Multi-Z surfaces categories. Sub-folders are listed before individual objects; in the Wells category the All curves and Filters branches remain pinned at the top.

Data categories

Data manager contains predefined categories for specific data types:

Seismic 2D - contains any type of 2D seismic data such as post-stack, pre-stack, velocity, attributes etc.

Right mouse button on the icon allows to:

  • Add new line
  • Convert ASCII data to lines
  • Clear lines
  • Export all lines to CPS-3 line file
  • Export all time lines to depth
  • Export all time lines with shifts
  • Receive lines
  • Commit lines
  • Add folder

Seismic 3D - contains any type of seismic 3D data such as post-stack, pre-stack, velocity, attributes etc.

Right mouse button on the icon allows to:

  • Add new volume
  • Convert ASCII data to volume
  • Clear volumes
  • Clear 3D visualization cache
  • Receive volumes
  • Commit volumes
  • Add folder

Sections - each 3D survey (volume geometry) has a Sections folder that stores individual inline (IL) and crossline (XL) sections of that survey. When the folder is first created it is seeded with the survey's centre inline and crossline, listed as IL <number> and XL <number>.

Right mouse button on the Sections folder allows to:

  • Add section... - choose the axis (Inline or Crossline) and the line number to add. The number defaults to the central line of the survey.

Right mouse button on an individual section allows to:

  • Visualize - display the selected inline or crossline in the seismic views
  • Remove

Arbitrary lines - contains all seismic arbitrary lines created in g-Space

Right mouse button on the icon allows to:

  • Add arbitrary line
  • Clear arbitrary lines
  • Add folder

Wells - contains any type of well data

Right mouse button on the icon allows to:

  • Import well headers from file
  • Import well headers from IHS 297 fixed file
  • Clear wells
  • Receive wells
  • Commit wells
  • Add folder

Well sections - contains all well sections created in g-Space

Right mouse button on the icon allows to:

  • Add well section
  • Clear well sections
  • Add folder

Markers - contains well marker data with other attributes

Right mouse button on the icon allows to:

Horizons - contains seismic picking

Right-click the Horizons category to:

  • Add new horizon

Right mouse button on the icon allows to:

  • Add raster files
  • Add folder

Shapefile layers - contains loaded shapes and cultural data

Right mouse button on the icon allows to:

  • Add shape files
  • Load cultural points from text file
  • Load custom points from text file
  • Add folder

Maps - contains all grids loaded externally and generated by running velocity model.

Maps are separated by types:

  • Depth maps
  • Velocity maps
  • Calculated maps
  • Time maps
