The Create Borelines tool is accessed by double-clicking on " Create BoreLines" under the " Features" toolset under the " Subsurface Analyst" toolset under the " ArcHydroGroundwater.pyt" toolbox. This tool creates BoreLine (3D polyline) features from vertical data related to point features (e.g. Wells). Tool inputs are a well feature class and a table with vertical data, which are related through key fields. Features can be attributed with a GroupID which can be used to categorize the BoreLines (for example, into hydrogeologic units).
- ArcGIS Notes – In older versions of ArcGIS, this tool appears as a dialog and is accessed through the "Arc Hydro Groundwater Tools" toolbox.
- The icons vary between ArcGIS and ArcGIS Pro.
- The names of the fields in this tool might be different in ArcGIS.
The following fields are available. Required fields are marked with a icon. In ArcGIS, they are marked with a icon. Fields marked with a icon may not be supported or the selected table may not exist.
- Input Well Features – Click the button to bring up the Input Well Features dialog in order to specify the point features representing the location where the borehole data were measured.
- Well Unique Feature Identifier Field – Select from the drop-down the unique identifier of the point features. The unique identifier is used as a key field to which vertical data are related.
- Input BoreLine Features – Click the button to bring up the Input BoreLine Features dialog in order to specify the feature class storing the 3D features created.
- Boreline Related Identifier Field – Select from the drop-down the key field associating BoreLine features to the point features from which they were created.
- BoreLine GroupID – Select from the drop-down the attribute of BoreLine features used to classify them into categories (e.g., hydrogeologic units).
- Input Borehole Data Table – Click the button to bring up the Input BoreholeLog Table dialog in order to specify the table containing vertical data from which the BoreLine features are created.
- BoreholeLog Related Identifier – Select from the drop-down the key field associating vertical data with point features.
- BoreholeLog GroupID – Select from the drop-down the field in the BoreholeLog table used to classify intervals into categories (e.g., hydrogeologic units).
- BoreholeLog Top Elevation – Select from the drop-down the field in the BoreholeLog table representing top elevations.
- BoreholeLog Bottom Elevation – Select from the drop-down the field in the BoreholeLog table representing bottom elevations.
- Append to Existing BoreLine Features – Optional. Turn on to append new BoreLines to the feature class. Turn off to clear the target feature class prior to creating new BoreLines.
