Interested in 3D geological modeling with ArcGIS? Take a look at two new tools developed to make borehole and faults modeling easier.   The first tool allows one to model boreholes in 3D in ArcScene, based on their geometrical characteristics (coordinates, azimuth, dip). The tool can be used to represent stratigraphic layers, the level of the water table, in situ and laboratory tests values. It allows rapid and accurate modeling and synthesis of a large quantity of data and helps improve the safety and performance of the works. Further details can be found at http://www.geol-gis.ch/en/borehole-3d.   The second tool allows one to create a 3D square plane of determined orientation, dip and width, at pre-determined coordinates. The output is a 3D polygon. This tool is especially useful for the 3D modeling of geological features such as faults, joints, lithologic contacts, bedding or schistosity planes. It is also practical for creating geological cross-sections. Further details can be found at http://www.geol-gis.ch/en/dt-dipping-plane. ... View more

I have two .shp files 1) Is a whole country that is divided into different geological settings and 2) a catchment (a polygon) that is withing this country and covers at least 3 of these geological settings. What I would like to do is to find out which ArcTool could help me to find out the percentages of these geological settings within that polygon. ... View more

What is the best workflow practice for digitizing lines and polygons? I am thinking of digitizing lines first in a couple of layers, then forming polygons by manually selecting lines. Would this approach work if I want to generate a polygon from two separate layers? Thanks ... View more

Hey Guys, I have been given the opportunity to describe a job title for an employee that is a geologist by education but has become the geospatial expert and permitting expert within our team for the past two years. Does anyone know of a good job title that encompasses both of these skills? Thanks in advance ... View more
