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
When selected, the module runs when any of the input parameters are changed. When deselected, the Execute button must be pressed for the module to run.
Execute
Button
Forces the module to run. If pressed and the application is saved, the module will run when the application is loaded.
Filename
String
The raster file to read. Supported formats include DEMs, Surfer grid files, Mr. Sid files, ADF files, and others.
Material Number
Integer
The material number for the surface being read.
Coord Units
String
The coordinate units for the surface being read.
Surface Name
String
The surface name for the surface being read.

Description
Raster Band
Integer
Selects a single raster band when reading image formats such as JPEG or TIFF.
Downsize
Integer
Reduces the resolution of the input raster.
Blanks As Null
Boolean
Specifies that points marked to be blanked out in the raster are left out of the geologic model when it is created. Highly recommended to leave checked.
Min I
Integer
Crops the lower bound of the horizontal domain of the raster.
Max I
Integer
Crops the upper bound of the horizontal domain of the raster.
Min J
Integer
Crops the lower bound of the vertical range of the raster.
Max J
Integer
Crops the upper bound of the vertical range of the raster.
Max Total Resolution
Integer
Causes the module to report an error if the generated geology is greater than the set amount.
