Encom Discover 3D 6.0 for MapInfo Professional is the first fully integrated 3D GIS solution for the resource sector.

Built on top of the functionality and power of the award-winning Encom Discover, Discover 3D turns the 2D environment into a full 3D GIS system.

Accurately visualise and analyse all of your datasets in the Discover 3D environment. Then interpret, digitize and model them to examine and test trends, potential extensions, offsets and targets.

Features

• fully integrated with Encom Discover and MapInfo Professional
• real-time 3D navigation via the mouse or SpaceNavigator(tm)
• fly-through movie creation and playback
• extensive industry format support, allowing the visualisation and manipulation of data such as gridded surfaces, vectors objects, voxel models and raster images
• visualise and analyse drillhole projects in 3D in detail, including colour and thickness modulation display controls, 2D section boundary display, live downhole data interrogation, etc
• dynamic drillhole planning and targetting
• extensive powerful modelling and gridding capabilities

These modelling and gridding capabilities include:

• extrusion of simple objects to create fault planes, stratigraphic boundaries, etc
• digitize interpretations directly in 3D, including snapping precisely to drillhole intervals
• wireframing between objects (including tieline support) to build triangulated surfaces and solids
• interpolation between 3D objects to create smooth gridded surfaces
• 3D block modelling (3D gridding) to create and manipulate voxel models
• model refinement and experimentation with Discover 3D's advanced editing functionality, e.g. cutting or intersecting one model with another, elastically reshaping regions within a solid, combining multiple models, etc

Discover 3D offers a versatile data integration environment which will not only raise the productivity of your multidisciplinary project teams but also provide them with a new platform to stimulate discussion, enrich exploration strategies and contribute to exploration success.
