There are several modes for attaching core photos to the drillhole interval.
We have already explained how to create an Imago link in this article. Now, I will explain how to "wrap" the core photo around the drillhole.
If your license includes the Exploration module, you can use the Imaging form, which is located at the following path – Vizex > Display Layers > Drillhole > Imaging.
To use this function, we will need a Drillhole Database, an Intervals File, and a special field (Image) specifying the path to the image file. Also, the image file itself should be vertically oriented and cropped along the core boundary, as shown in the figure below.
You can specify either the absolute path to the photo file or a relative path as in my example (OTV\THRC024_OTV_NM_Mirror.jpg). By default, the program will search for files in the project folder.
Core images are often of a very high resolution. To speed up loading times, use the slider control to set the display resolution of those images on-the-fly. The default display resolution is 50% of the original resolution of the image. Note that the underlying image file is not changed.
On the Display tab, you can configure the image to be displayed either as a Cylinder or simply as a Billboard.
As a result, we can obtain an image of our core wrapped around the trajectory of our well in three-dimensional space.
