RockWorks14 is integrated geological visualization and analysis software developed to address the needs of those in the environmental, civil engineering and mining industries. A variety of easy-to-use graphical tools with advanced interpolation algorithms give users the ability to visualize geologic data.
RockWorks14 is a broad, integrated geological data management, analysis, and visualization tool.
It contains a borehole data manager for easy entry of downhole data: observed lithology/stratigraphy contacts, geophysics or geochemistry measurements, water levels, fractures and deviated drill hole surveys.
Downhole data can be easily analyzed using RockWorks14's two dimensional and three dimensional OpenGL visualization tools.
Whats New
New Project Manager Features
Use the new Project Manager interface to view and open files in the current project folder.
Customize the types of files that are displayed
Double-click on grid model names to display them as 2D contour maps and 3D surfaces.
Double-click on solid model names to display them as 3D voxel or isosurface models.
Hold your mouse of RockPlot2D and 3D files to see previews
New 2D and 3D Striplog Options
Plot I-Data and P-Data using logarithmic scales in 2D and 3D logs.
“Unwind” 2D directional logs to avoid projection onto itself.

Plot lithology patterns in 2D Sections or Profiles. Patterns are included in layers that can be enabled or disabled, along with striplogs and other data types in the diagram.
Plot logs in Striplog Sections based on true Easting/Northing location, or with equal spacing between logs. This should be helpful if you have sections with large gaps between boreholes.
Plot multiple parallel profiles automatically. This options is now available for all data types in the Borehole Manager.
Improved Stratigraphy Modeling
Constrain your Stratigraphy models based on upper ground surface grids or lower pit surface grids.
Clipped Stratigraphy models now plot side with panels along irregular boundaries.
New 3D Visualization Tools
Distribute RockPlot3D to your coworkers as a free viewer for your saved 3D scenes. (Download the RockPlot3D installation.)
Includes “isomesh” contour lines in 3D isosurface diagrams.
Durov Diagrams
Plot hydrochemistry data as Durov diagrams, with optional point density of TDS color contours.
Sieve Diagrams
Use this tool to generate cumulative grain size distribution diagrams depicting grain size distributions for one or more samples.
The direction of increase for the horizontal and vertical axes may be easily switched.
Annotion options include millimeters, microns, Udden-Wentworth, ASTM, Tyler Mesh, and USCS.

Coordinate Conversion
RockWorks has coordinate conversion tools for UTM (XY), lat/lon (degree), land grid (Jeffersonian), polar coordinates, compass/survey data and more.
Use RockWorks to convert information for Geographic Coordinate Systems and Compass Survey Data.
The LogPlot to RockWorks program is designed for the LogPlot user who wants to create a RockWorks project using two or more LogPlot "dat" files.
Using log design information, this tool can determine the LogPlot entities that can be imported into RockWorks and, where possible, it will offer the user control over the specific import options.
Lithology/stratigraphy data (LogPlot: "Lith"), geochemical data (LogPlot "Histogram"), geophysical data (LogPlot "Curve"), log symbols, and text can all be imported.
Built-in software tutorials are displayed on the screen when you first start the program, with step-by-step information about creating a variety of maps, diagrams, and reports. The tutorial window can be accessed at any time from the RockWorks program. Lessons can be printed out for easy use.
Text and pictures are displayed in the program window with descriptions about the program tool and its settings. Simply point to a menu item and read the "abstract".
Click on the "Help" or "?" button in the program windows to launch the standard RockWorks2006 help messages with the applicable topic displayed.
RockWorks2006 is shipped with an instruction manual that complements the menu abstracts and on-line help.
