GMS:Exporting Pathlines

From XMS Wiki
Jump to navigationJump to search

MODPATH pathlines can be exported from GMS in a few different ways:

Capture Zones -> Arcs

The MODPATH | Capture Zones -> Arcs command will convert the capture zone outline to feature arcs, creating a separate coverage for each well. Coverages can be exported as a shapefile or converted to CAD data.

Pathlines -> Arcs

The MODPATH | Pathlines -> Arcs command will convert pathlines to feature arcs, creating a separate coverage for each well. Coverages can be exported as a shapefile or converted to CAD data.

Starting Locations -> 3D Scatter Points

Starting locations can be converted to 3D scatter points and vice-versa. If the MODPATH | Starting Locations -> 3D Scatter Points menu command is selected, a new 3D scatter point set will be created from each particle set that is visible. If the command is executed by right-clicking on a particle set in the Project Explorer, a new 3D scatter point set will be created from only that particle set.

Tab delimited file

Pathlines can be exported by right-clicking on a particle set in the Project Explorer and selecting the Export option. This saves the pathline geometry to a tab-delimited text file that can be imported directly into Excel:

You can bring up a spreadsheet report showing the pathline XYZ data in GMS. See MODPATH Particle Sets, Spreadsheet Report.
