<p></p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>__NOTOC__<br /> {{OR/18/030}}<br /> The standard GSI3D modelling workflow was followed for this project. GSI3D software utilises a range of data such as boreholes, digital terrain models (DTM) and geological linework to enable the geologist to construct a series of interlocking cross-sections. Borehole data is represented in GSI3D by two proprietary files: a borehole identification file (.bid) that contains ‘index’-level information including location and start-heights; a borehole log file (.blg) that contains the borehole interpretation. Constructing cross-sections is intuitive and flexible, combining borehole and outcrop data with the geologist’s experience to refine the interpretation.<br /> <br /> Using both the information from the cross-sections and the distribution of each unit a calculation algorithm creates the triangulated surfaces for the top and base of each unit. In order to control the relative vertical ordering of the calculation, a generalised vertical section file (.gvs) is established. A proprietary legend file (.gleg) is created to control symbolisation of the cross-section and model. The modeller can view all the units in 3D and iteratively return to the cross-section to make amendments or add further cross-sections to refine the model. This process is a standard methodology within BGS for modelling Quaternary and simple bedrock horizons and is fully documented in Kessler &#039;&#039;et al &#039;&#039;(2009)&lt;ref name=&quot;Kessler 2009&quot;&gt;Kessler, H, Mathers, S J, and Sobisch, H G. 2009.
