SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT
mView
mView supports all facets of the numeric modelling process, including data processing and analysis, model pre- and post- processing, and presentation of results. Models supported include TOUGH, HydroGeoSphere, FLAC3D, MODFLOW and others.
• Data can be imported into mView using standard formats such as dxf, shapefile, Surfer grids, etc., as well as generic table, grid and XYZ data.
• Once the data is within mView, the data can be manipulated, visualized and exported e.g., interpolating surfaces from borehole data
• mView supports multiple coordinate systems and provides transparent coordinate system transformations. For example, UTM grids and site grids can be easily used together.
Numeric Model Development
• mView has a complete set of tools for generating 2D and 3D finite difference and finite element grids.
• Grid properties and boundary conditions can be set using a variety of tools for index selection (e.g., nodes falling inside/outside 2D polygons), boolean logic, and node to element to face conversions.
• mView provides support for delineating discrete fracture features on a rectangular model grid. Given a three-dimensional polygon representation of actual fractures, mView will calculate the element faces that optimally represent the fractures.
• Model specific input files can be generated for TOUGH, HydroGeoSphere, FLAC3D, MODFLOW and others.
Analysis of Model Results
• Convert model outputs to mView formats (scalars, vectors, tables, etc.).
• Mathematical operations (e.g., calculate difference between results from two runs, or two time steps from the same run).
• CDF construction and data extraction (e.g., find 95th percentiles of data).
• Univariate statistics
Visualisation
• 2D and 3D spatial plots for visualizing fields and vectors
• 2D and 3D non-spatial plots for plotting time series and CDFs
• Composite plots to combine multiple plots in a single figure
• Report quality 2D and 3D figures/posters
• Integrated animation support
Originally developed to support the Yucca Mountain project, continued development of mView has been performed under Geofirma’s ISO 9001 certified QMS. mView can be purchased by contacting John Avis. Support and training are also available.
