Export Mapped Objects

Mapped objects, such as discontinuities, survey lines and points, and scanlines, can be exported from Sirovision for use in other applications.

Activity Steps

  1. Open the Analysis menu.
  2. Select Export from the Reports field group.

    The Export Wizard displays.

  3. Select Mapped Objects.
  4. Click Next.
  5. Select the 3D image from which to export the mapped object data. The selected image is highlighted in orange.
  6. Select which objects to export from the following options.
    • Discontinuities – All mapped discontinuities. Can be exported in one of the following formats.
      • Text – ASCII format text file.
      • CSV – Comma Separated Excel spreadsheet.
      • DXF – Data Exchange File format used by most CAD products.
      • Datamine – Datamine compatible format.
      • Dips – DIPS compatible format file.
      • Surpac – SURPAC (STR) string format file.
      • Minesight – MINESIGHT (XYZ) compatible file format.
    • Survey Lines and Points – All mapped survey lines and points. Survey lines are exported as X, Y, Z coordinates of the nodes used to plot the survey line, as well as the end-to-end length of the line. Survey Points are exported as X, Y, Z coordinates of the survey point. Survey lines and points can be exported in one of the following formats.
      • Text – ASCII format text file.
      • CSV – Comma Separated Excel spreadsheet.
      • DXF – Data Exchange File format used by most CAD products.
      • Datamine – Datamine compatible format.
    • Scanlines – All mapped scanlines. Scanlines are exported in a standard reporting format in one of the following formats. See Scanlines for more information.
      • Text – ASCII format text file.
      • CSV – Comma Separated Excel spreadsheet.
  7. If exporting Discontinuities, configure the fields in the Options group as required.
    • Export Spatial Data – Whether to include the spatial data representing the mapped discontinuities.
    • Nodes – Export the easting, northing and height data for each node or point mapped on the image that makes up a trace or plane.
    • Disc Outlines – Export each discontinuity’s fitted plane as 37 points representing a circle whose diameter is the persistence of the discontinuity. This enables visualisation of planes in other software packages.
    • Export All Points
    • Attributes – Select which attributes to include in the output by selecting them in the Excluded Attributes column and clicking the right arrow to move them to the Included Attributes column.

      Note: Attributes display in the output file in the order they are listed in the Included Attributes column.

  8. Select the Destination Folder to export to by clicking the ellipsis (...).
  9. Click Next.
  10. Click Finish.
