Create Terrain

The Create Terrain tool is available only when working in a three-dimensional model. Use this tool to create a digital terrain model to represent a stratum found in the boreholes.

To create a terrain object, the following properties need to be defined:

Terrain Name - User defined. The name of the terrain to be created.

Type - Comes from the database. Which property type will be used to create the terrain.

Identifier - Comes from the database. Which property will be used to create the terrain.

Existing Ground - Comes from the model. Select the ground terrain model. When a ground terrain is selected, it prevents triangle generation for the new terrain to be above the ground.

Use all Boreholes - When checked, automatically selects all loaded boreholes to create the terrain.

Create Bottom Terrain - When checked, the terrain will be created using the Bottom Depth of a layer instead of the Depth.
