The import raster as horizon module reads several different raster format files in EVS Geology format. These formats include DEMs, Surfer grid files, Mr. Sid files, ADF files, etc.. Multiple import raster as horizon modules can be combined with combine horizons into a 3D geologic model. Alternatively, a single file can be displayed as a surface (with surfaces from horizons) or you can export its coordinates (with export nodes) to use the values in a GMF file.

Description
Allow Run
Boolean
The Allow Run toggle if selected will allow the module to run when any of the input parameters are changed. If the toggle is not selected then the Execute button will have to be pressed for the module to run.
Execute
Button
The Execute button forces the module to run. If this has been pressed and the application saved, it will cause the module to run when the application is loaded.
Filename
String
The raster_to_geology module reads several different raster format files in EVS Geology format. These formats include DEMs, Surfer grid files, Mr. Sid files, ADF files, etc..
Material Number
Integer
The Material Number type in allows the user to set the material number for the surface being read.
Coord Units
String
The Coord Units type in allows the user to set the coordinate units for the surface being read.
Surface Name
String
The Surface Name type in allows the user to set the surface name for the surface being read.

Description
Raster Band
Integer
The Raster Band is used to select a single raster band when reading image formats such as jpeg or tif.
Downsize
Integer
The Downsize value is used to reduce the resolution of the input raster.
Blanks As Null
Boolean
The Blanks as Null option is used to specify that points marked to be blanked out in the raster will be left out of the geologic model when it is created. It is highly recommended to leave this checked.
Min I
Integer
The Min I value is used to crop the lower bound of the horizontal domain of the raster.
Max I
Integer
The Max I value is used to crop the upper bound of the horizontal domain of the raster.
Min J
Integer
The Min J value is used to crop the lower bound of the vertical range of the raster.
Max J
Integer
The Max J value is used to crop the upper bound of the vertical range of the raster.
Max Total Resolution
Integer
The Max Total Resolution will cause the module to report an error if the generated geology is greater than the set amount.
