Keeping you in touch with your data
An important design strategy in
Oasis montaj
was to keep you in touch with your data. In
fact, the system is intended to connect you with your data and information in several
unique ways:
•
By providing an integrated environment that holds all of your project information
•
By enabling quick and easy access all your project data via the Project Explorer
including; databases, grids, maps, tools and metadata information
•
By providing unique views of data (spreadsheet, profile and map)
•
By connecting you to data and information in these views (through a specialized
dynamic linking technology)
•
By delivering a wide variety of algorithms and techniques
•
By “memorizing” the processing you apply to data and maps by means of a
proprietary process “maker” technology. This capability is especially useful for
quickly testing and optimizing processing parameters. It also keeps a record of
processing so that you can remember your settings if you stop working on your
project and later return to it.
Geosoft’s approach is intended to give you a means of keeping in close contact with your
original and processed data and information — from start to finish. As you use the system,
you will find your own ways to take advantage of these capabilities.
