Converting CRS When Importing a Fault

When you are importing faults that uses a different CRS from the CRS you have defined for a project, Insight is able to convert it to the project CRS.

Import a fault

  2. Click Faults.
  3. Select the fault(s) you want to import and click Open (see Importing a Fault).

The Coordinate Reference System conversion window will be displayed.

Select the type of coordinates

Select the type of coordinates

At Type of coordinates, select Eastings / Northings if the fault is using the eastings/northings coordinates or Latitude / Longitude if it is using the latitude/longitude coordinates.

Convert fault CRS to project CRS

Convert fault CRS to project CRS
  1. Click Convert from to select the eastings/northings or latitude/longitude CRS of the fault from the standard CRS table and click OK. This is the original fault CRS which will be converted to the project CRS. The CRS of the project is defined when you create a project (see Creating a Project).

Note: If you are importing multiple faults at the same time, the CRS will be applied to all the faults.
