Depth
– Calculated depth from the topological ground surface to the bore path at that data point.
If no topography is entered, depth is undefined and this column will indicate
“No Topo.” in the
table.
Rel.Dep.
– Calculated depth relative to the 0 line of the Y-axis of the profile chart.
Course R/L
– Calculated distance right, R, or left, L, from the centerline of the plan view chart.
Date/Time
– Date and time the specified data point was recorded. This information does not show
on the charts or printed report.
Comments
– User-entered comments.
Data points in the list can be edited, inserted, deleted, hidden, or removed from the chart and printed
report. Only data points that have been manually inserted can be deleted.
A data point can be edited and commented on in the Edit Steering Tool Data Point dialog box at any time
by right-clicking on a data point and selecting Edit or by double-clicking on a data point in the list or on the
chart. Only measured values and comments can be edited. Calculated values are determined based on
the measurements recorded or input by the user. See the
Inputting and Editing Drill Data
section for more
information on recording and editing data points.
Topography
The topography table displays a list of all of the topography points used to graph the ground surface
terrain (green line) in the profile chart and to calculate depths. The columns in the table include:
Topo.Pt.
– Number of the topography point as it appears left to right on the profile chart.
Dist.
– Distance from where the tool enters the ground (Rod 0) to the specified topography point.
Units are those displayed in the job information field for depth.
Rel.Elev.
– Vertical distance from the origin or the chart to the specified topography point. Units
are those displayed in the job information field for depth.
Topography points can be edited, inserted, deleted, or imported into the topography table.
A topography point can be edited in the Edit Topo Data dialog box by right-clicking on the table and
selecting Edit or by double-clicking on a topography point in the list or on the chart. See the
Inputting and
Editing Drill Data
section for more information on importing, inserting, and editing topography points.
Drill Plan
The drill plan table displays a list of all the points used to graph the planned bore path (gray line) on the
profile and plan view charts. The columns in the table include:
Plan Pt.
– Number of the drill plan point as it appears left to right on the profile and plan view
charts.
Dist.
– Horizontal distance from where the tool enters the ground (Rod 0) to the specified drill plan
point. Units are those displayed in the job information field for depth.
Rel.Dep.
– Vertical distance from the origin of the profile chart to the specified drill plan point.
Units are those displayed in the job information field for depth.
Course R/L
– Distance right, R, or left, L, from the reference heading line to the specified drill plan
point on the plan view chart. Units are those displayed in the job information field for depth.
