This module is available only in EVS-PRO and MVS
General Module Function
The external_kriging will output both data and a grid in the simple GeoEAS format. This data can be kriged externally from EVS/MVS and the results in the same format can then be read into EVS and added to the input grid.
Module Input Ports
1) in_data (Blue-Black): This port takes any field with nodal data.
2) in_grid (Blue-Black): This port takes a grid.
3) z_scale (Gray-Brown): This ports takes a float value that is the z_exaggeration of the input coordinates.
Module Ouput Ports
1) out_fld (Blue-Black): This port outputs a grid containing the selected imported data.
Module Control Panel
The external_kriging control panel is shown above.
The Translate X / Y / Z toggle when turned on, translates the entire model back to the origin based on the values input. If the input values are left at 0.0 the values will be calculated based on the centroid of the model.
Upon importing your model, all imported coordinates will be translated by the same values to return your model to the proper coordinate system.
NOTE: This toggle should be used if experiencing precision issues with other software.
Export Data and Export Grid Panels:
The Select Data/Grid Filename button will set the output GeoEAS file name for the nodal/grid data.
Selecting the Exponentiate Log Data toggle will cause any data that has been log processed to be exponentiated before being written out.
When the Accept Current Values button is selected the file will be written out.
Import Data Panel:
Select Import Filename allows the user to select the data file they wish to import.
The data columns from the imported file can be toggled on or off, and the data can be log processed if necessary.
When the Accept Current Values button is selected the module will try to match each X,Y,Z coordinate found in the file with a node coordinate from the input grid. If these coordinates do not match an error will be reported.
