Dynamically link data and information to knowledge
Dynamic links are a key part of Geosoft’s strategy of helping professional’s stay in close
touch with their data—from import to processing to analysis. By definition, dynamic links
are interactive graphical connections that you can activate between databases, profiles and
any number of maps in your project. When you activate links and select any item or
position in a database, profile or map, a cursor automatically connects the item or point in
all items.
This capability gives you an important means of visualizing original or processed results
in any view and seeing the corresponding representation in another view. The practical
benefit is that you can quickly perform quality control, processing or analysis using all
available data and information. Applying dynamic linking is also a highly efficient
approach to building knowledge and making informed decisions.
