Borehole location, geology, contour and isopach maps
Use RockWorks 2004 to create a variety of 2D and 3D maps from your borehole data.
Borehole Location Maps- Plot unique symbols for each borehole location
- Display subsurface traces for deviated or inclined wells
- Include surface contours (lines and/or color-filled)
- Include background map images (topo maps)
Borehole location map
Geology Maps
- New to RockWorks 2004
- Display interpolated lithology or stratigraphy at surface intersects
- ground surface or subsurface contacts
- Or, display interpolated lithology or stratigraphy as a horizontal slice, at a user-specified elevation
- Display full geology patterns or background colors only
Geology Map
Contour Maps
- Create 2D contour maps of stratigraphic surfaces, with line and/or color-filled contours
- Create 3D surface displays of one or more stratigraphic surfaces, with a variety of surface display options (wireframe, color gradient, solid)
Contour map
Isopach Maps
- Illustrate isopachs models as 2D contour maps, with line or color-filled contours
- Isopachs can represent a single formation or multiple adjacent formations
- Illustrate isopachs in 3D
Isopach Map
Point maps in RockWorks
RockWorks 2004 gives you the capability to create numerous different styles of point maps, including bubble maps, barchart maps, piechart maps and more:
Simple point maps- Unique symbols and colors for each sample point or well
- Customizable symbols
- Labels are automatically positioned such that they do not overplot adjacent labels or other symbols
A simple point map
Point maps with variable symbol sizes
- Symbols linearly scaled based on user-specified minimum and maximum symbol dimensions. Well suited for geochemistry with small variations.
- Symbols, colors, and dimensions based on ranges within a user-defined table
Point map with variable symbol size
Bubble maps
- Circle diameters defined by user-designated data column
- Colors defined by separate data column
- Petroleum example: diameter = production, color = ownership
- Geochemistry example: diameter = PPM, color = sample type (e.g. stream sediment vs. rockchip).
Bubble Map
Pie chart maps
- Display multiple percentage variables as small pie charts on a map
- Data automatically normalized to 100%
- Optional pie wedge annotation
- Display well symbol inside pie chart by defining inside radius
- "Explode" segments for emphasis
- Great for showing mineralogical variations
Pie Chart Map
Starburst maps
- Display multiple concentration variables as small "starbursts" on a map
- Each "wedge" has it's own radius scaling factor.
- Optional wedge annotation
- Display well symbol inside pie chart by defining inside radius
- "Explode" segments for emphasis
- Great for showing multiple contaminant values
Starburst map
Barchart maps
- Display multiple concentrations variables as small barcharts on a map
- Separate column-height scaling factors for each column
- Optional bar annotation
- Great for visually comparing multiple contaminant levels at many sites
Barchart Map
RockWorks contour maps
RockWorks 2004 let's you easily create feature-rich contour maps from your elevation (topographic) or other XYZ data:
Non-grid (triangulation-based) contour map

3D Surface Maps and Terrain Models
RockWorks 2004 allows you to create 3D surfaces based on elevation or other XYZ data. Display surfaces in 3D with a variety of surface styles. Adjust transparency, lighting, and vertical stretch for all. Zooming and rotation are possible for all types of 3D surfaces.
Types of surfaces that can be created in RockWorks
- Mesh surface Solid surface
- Dot grid surface
Mesh, solid and dot grid 3D surfaces (from upper left to lower right)
Surface color schemes
- Solid Gradational color (ie. hot to cold)
- Custom color
Solid, gradational and custom color schemes (from upper left to lower right)
Additional options
- Drape 2D contour maps over surfaces Drape raster images over surfaces Float raster images over surfaces
- Stack multiple surfaces
Airphoto draped over surface topography, vertical storage tanks, and lithology logs
RockWorks land grid maps
RockWorks 2004 has the following utilities available to process and display your land grid data:
Import and/or interpolate land grid coordinates
- Import section coordinates from commercial data vendors:
- IHS (Petroleum Information/Dwights) Tobin (Graphics Information ASCII-31 Format)
- Whitestar (Platte River)
- Interpolate section corners based on a known reference point
Section grid maps (township and range)
- Converts tables of land grid corner point coordinates to fully annotated section maps Automatically calculates and displays acreages
- Full control of plotting parameters such as labeling verbosity, colors, and font dimensions
Section grid or township and range map
Convert legal descriptions to local or global coordinates
- Convert tables of legal descriptions (e.g. well locations) into cartesian coordinates (longitude/latitude, UTM feet/meters)
- Accepts quarter/quarter, half-section, or footage-from-edge style legal descriptions
Lease ownership/expiration map
- Convert legal descriptions to cartesian coordinates based on land-grid database
- Control colors, patterns, font sized, etc
Lease ownership and expiration map
RockWorks surveying tools
RockWorks 2004 has the following utilities available to process and display your surveying data:
Convert survey coordinates to XYZConvert bearing, distance, and inclination to XYZ values. Display as 2D maps and as 3D images.
Convert survey coordinates to XYZ
Determine known points
- Convert triangulation-based survey data to known points
- Compute locations by "shooting" at known points
Determine known points
Downhole Survey
Create plan-view, profile, or 3D image of deviated boreholes.
