What's new in Target

Target 6.4.2

Create a 3D PDF

New to this version is the ability to export a 3D subsurface view as a PDF file. Within Adobe Acrobat you are able to interact with the 3D view. It can be zoomed, rotated and individual data layers may be toggled off and on, or made transparent. This PDF export provides a simple way for you to share 3D subsurface data with colleagues and allow them the opportunity to interact with the data.

Target 6.4

Powerful voxel extraction tools

Extract your section grids and your plan grids

You can now extract section and plan grids more easily. These new tools allow you to extract multiple vertical or horizontal grids from your voxels and view and manipulate your data in a 2D or 3D environment.

Plot Isosurface tool

Generate 3D views of isosurfaces from your voxels

Geosoft's new Plot Isosurface tool is a valuable visualization tool that displays isosurfaces from your 3D grids, enabling you to gain a better understanding of geological formations. Create many isosurfaces, each with a unique colour.

Anisotropic 3D gridding

Enhanced 3D gridding functionality

The addition of anisotropic voxel and spherical gridding capabilities adds easy-to-access value to what you can learn about targets in their 3D environment. You can grid in your preferred direction. Specify the strike, dip and plunge, and preferred weighting to create more meaningful 3D grids that honour the data and preferentially enhance trends in the specified direction.

Automated Map Sheets

Easily produce multiple map sheets

Now, with Automated Map Sheets it's faster and easier to generate multiple map sheets from a regional map covering a large data area. Geoscientists who make a series of maps that require consistency will appreciate the ability to easily apply a single map template to multiple maps.

Map Snapshot Tool

Quickly go back to areas of interest and preview new data as new data arrives

The new Map Snapshot tool enables you to 'bookmark' any areas of interest. Making it easy to go back and review potential targets. Once you take a Map Snapshot of the location, it's embedded in your file, making it easy to share with your colleagues.

Target Geochemistry Extension

In addition, a number of the montaj extensions include significant enhancements, including:

Geochemistry

Math Expression Support in scatter plots

With fewer steps you can be more efficient. Now, scatter plots directly support Math Expressions reducing the number of steps to display your data in XY plots and tri-plots. Leaving you more time to interpret your geochemistry data.
