create fault surface

The create fault surface module creates a 3D grid that is aligned to a specified strike and dip. The surface can be positioned at a center point, sized, and oriented to represent a fault plane for use with other modules such as distance to surface.

Ports

Direction	Name	Type	Description
Input	Input Field	Field	A field used to generate the center point.
Input	Input Z Scale	Number	The factor for vertical scaling.
Output	Output Z Scale	Number	The factor for vertical scaling.
Output	Output Field	Field	The field containing the created fault surface.
Output	Fault Surface	Renderable	A renderable object displaying the created fault surface.

Properties

Property	Type	Description
Z Scale	Double	The Z Scale is the vertical exaggeration to apply to the coordinate values of the output.
Strike	Double	The Strike value is the direction around the Z axis to align the fault surface. With the value of zero aligned North-South and rotation clockwise.
Dip	Double	The Dip value allows the fault surface to rotate around the axis defined by the Strike value.
Dip Direction	Choice: N/E, S/W	The Dip Direction controls the direction the Dip rotates around the axis defined by the Strike value.
Center Point	Double	The Center Point is the location of the center of the fault surface. It is also used as a center of rotation for the fault surface.
X Resolution	Integer	The X Resolution is the number of nodes in the X direction of the grid.
Y Resolution	Integer	The Y Resolution is the number of nodes in the Y direction of the grid.
Width	Double	The Width field scales the grid in the X direction.
Length	Double	The Length field scales the grid in the Y direction.
Coordinate Units	String	The Coordinate Units by default are based on either the input field or set to ft.
