Import from RSLog

The Import from RSLog option allows users to import borehole data from an RSLog project to Dips to define discontinuities. Data from multiple boreholes may be imported from RSLog to Dips. These boreholes will then be displayed in the Orientation Data dialog as data sets.

To import boreholes from RSLog:

1. Select File > Import > Import RSLog from the menu or Analysis > Import RSLog from the Home ribbon.
2. The Import RSLog dialog appears, consisting of a series of pages allowing the user to specify the import method, select the project, and test holes.

Navigate through the process by clicking on the Next/Back buttons.

Online Import

If importing from RSLog online:

1. On the Import Method page:
   1. Select Import from RSLog Account.
   2. Optionally select the Custom Server checkbox and enter your own server URL. By default, the www.rslogonline.com server is used.
   3. Enter the Company, Username, and Password for your online account to log in.
   4. Optionally select the Save Company and Username checkbox to save the company and username entered for the next time you want to import from RSLog.
   5. Click Next.
   6. If Two-Factor Authentication is enabled in your RSLog account, then an additional Multi-Factor Authentication dialogs pops open prompting the user to Enter the code sent to your email.
      NOTE: Click Resend a new code to resend the email.
   7. Click Submit. If login details are valid, then the wizard proceeds to the Projects page.
2. On the Projects page, all available RSLog projects are listed.
   1. By default, Show Only Projects With Test Holes is selected which filters out any projects with no test holes.
   2. The Project Title, Project Number , Units, Client, Address, Coordinate System, Latitude, Longitude, UTM Zone, UTM Number, Test Hole Count, and Notes are shown for each project.
   3. Select the Project you want to import.
   4. Click Next.
3. On the Test Holes page, all available RSLog test holes are listed.
   1. By default, Show Only Test Holes with Discontinuities is selected, which filters out any test holes with no discontinuities.
   2. The Name, Verticality, Trend, Plunge, Depth, Investigation Date, Latitude, Longitude, Elevation, X, Y, and Discontinuity Count are shown for each test hole.
   3. Select the Test Hole(s) you want to import.
   4. Click Finish to import.

Offline Import

Local offline .JSON files exported from RSLog via Export > Export > Export Project Data (JSON) can also be imported to Dips using the Import RSLog option.

If importing from RSLog offline:

1. On the Import Method page:
   1. Select Import form RSLog Project Data File.
   2. Select Open and choose the .JSON file to import.
   3. Click Next.
2. On the Projects page, all available RSLog projects are listed.
   1. By default, Show Only Projects With Test Holes is selected which filters out any projects with no test holes.
   2. The Project Title, Project Number , Units, Client, Address, Coordinate System, Latitude, Longitude, UTM Zone, UTM Number, Test Hole Count, and Notes are shown for each project.
   3. Select the Project you want to import.
   4. Click Next.
3. On the Test Holes page, all available RSLog test holes are listed.
   1. By default, Show Only Test Holes with Discontinuities is selected, which filters out any test holes with no discontinuities.
   2. The Name, Verticality, Trend, Plunge, Depth, Investigation Date, Latitude, Longitude, Elevation, X, Y, and Discontinuity Count are shown for each test hole.
   3. Select the Test Hole(s) you want to import.
   4. Click Finish to import.

Assumptions of RSLog Data

Test holes (boreholes) from RSLog are oriented cores:

• Test holes with Simple Plumbness in RSLog are equivalent to Linear Borehole Oriented Core traverse type in Dips.
• Test holes with Verticality Log in RSLog are equivalent to Curved Borehole Oriented Core traverse type in Dips. The Verticality Log in RSLog is the equivalent of Survey Data in Dips.
  
• The reference angle (i.e., Orient 1) is assumed to be 0 degrees.
• Discontinuities are measured relative to the core orientation in Alpha/Beta angles.
• Declination is assumed to be 0 degrees (i.e., no declination correction).
