Overview

LiquidEarth supports two ways to import borehole data:

1. Simple import for data that already follows the required canonical CSV format.
2. Advanced import for data that needs custom parsing, column mapping, or other reader settings.

Both workflows import the same three types of borehole data:

• Collars: borehole collar locations at the surface.
• Survey: borehole trajectory downhole.
• Attributes: interval or point data along the borehole, such as lithology or assay values.

The Boreholes page in the Data Import Wizard, showing CSV Boreholes and CSV Boreholes - Advanced.

Simple Importer

For the simple importer to work, your CSV files should follow the required CSV format. In this documentation, this required structure is called the canonical CSV format. If your columns match these standards exactly, you do not need to configure any advanced settings. The following are required for each of the three files (collar, survey, and attributes/lithology):

• Header Row: the first row must contain the column names listed below.
• First Column: borehole identifier (id) that links the collar, survey, and attributes files.
• Delimiter: comma (,) separated.
• Encoding: UTF-8.
• Decimal Separator: dot (.) for decimals.

Import With The Simple Importer

1. Open the Data Import Wizard for the target space.
2. Select Boreholes, then choose CSV Boreholes.
3. Choose the collar, survey, and attribute files from the workspace or upload them from your device.
