Step-by-step
Drill Control Design helps designing a horizontal drill where the end result meets the set values and parameters.
Step-by-step design
Entering project data (optional) |
Used in reports and exports. This is an administrative function and does not affect the design. |
Creating a Surface to be used as dynamic EG Profile (optional) |
Creating a Surface is not necessary, an EG Profile can also be formed from non-dynamic data. Working with terrain models does have many advantages though. |
Creating a drill trace (required) |
A trace is necessary for designing a drill. A vertical design can only be determined if there is a horizontal design. Along a trace several drills can be designed (as a variant or in different locations). |
The vertical working space in which the drill is designed (required) |
A Profile View is necessary for designing a drill. |
Project objects and important points (optional) |
In the vertical working space, important points and objects can be projected from top view. When designing, it is easy to work around or under these projections. |
Placing an entry or exit point (required) |
If these are not placed, at least one control point is required. Of either or both are placed, the drill design will begin or end in these points. |
Placing a control point (required) |
The drill can be controlled by a control point, for example by specifying a minimum depth to be achieved. If no control points are placed, at least an entry or exit point are required. |
The actual design of the drill (required) |
A drill can be designed by parameters, a continuous curve between entry and exit points, or based on a chosen polyline. |
Export to a report, Google Earth or D-Geo Pipeline (optional) |
A design can be exported to a PDF report, a polyline or solid, a KML for Google Earth, or to D-Geo Pipeline for further calculations. It is also possible to place tables in the drawing with bundle data or tangent point data. |
Drill Control Construct helps creating an as-built drill from field data.
Step-by-step construct
Entering project data (optional) |
Used in reports and exports. This is an administrative function and does not affect the as-built. |
Export of construction data (optional) |
Export a drill design to a construction report, or an Excel file, to be used in the field when drilling. |
Importing field data (required) |
Process the data coming from the field into an as-built drill. |
Export to a report or Google Earth (optional) |
An as-built drill can be exported to a report or as a KML for Google Earth. It is also possible to place a table with coordinate data in the drawing. |
