Classed Post Logs

Click the Log | Create Log | Classed Post command to create a classed post log. Classed post logs are similar to the post logs, except that class post logs can use range schemes and numerical values to determine symbol properties.

 

Select from several hundred different symbols

to customize the scheme for your classed post log.

 

Data Requirements

Classed post logs use depth or interval data tables. In the data table, there are three required columns. The required columns are Hole ID, Depth, and the data column being displayed. Symbols are plotted at the center of the horizontal width of the classed post log. Symbols are plotted at the depth recorded in the depth column for each row.

 

Interval table types can be used. When an interval table type is used, the symbol is plotted at the center point of the interval. For instance, if the interval goes From 1 To 4, the symbol is plotted at 2.5 on the depth axis.

 

The Hole ID, Depth, and one column of data

are required for a classed post log.
