Import *.ifc BIM-format into Leapfrog Works?
Is it possible to import ifc data (BIM format) into Leapfrog Works? I know you can export into ifc but not sure about the import.
Exporting/Extracting Multiple Unclipped Meshes from a Geological Model
Does anyone else have this problem? I think this would be a great (and hopefully simple) change to Leapfrog Geo!
Extracting or exporting multiple unclipped surfaces from geological models. Currently to extract an unclipped surface you have to do it individually as the "Extract clipped mesh" tick box is only available there and not in any other menu or option for extracting meshes.
This would be a GAME CHANGER for me as I regularly have to extract over 100 surfaces - and to do this individually is painful and increases the risk of mistakes.
Re: Calculating material type volumes (m3) in a tunnel
Hi Alkis,
The method to see the geology volumes within the tunnel is slightly different to that of seeing the numeric data within the tunnel. For numeric models, we can use the Evaluation to project onto the tunnel mesh. However, when it comes to category models like GMs, we need to use more of a cutting method to combine the geology model with the tunnel. The easiest way to do this is through the Combined Model.
Here are the steps:
Create a GM volume from the tunnel design

Here are the steps:
Create a GM volume from the tunnel design
- Right-click on the Geological Models folder and create a new GM called 'Tunnel Extent'. Make sure your extents are around the tunnel. You can choose to have a base lithology column if you want, but I have selected None for mine because we are not using drilling data.
- Right-click on the Boundaries folder and select a New Extent > From Surface. Choose the tunnel.
- Drag your Output Volumes into the scene to ensure that the correct side has been used for cutting. If you have it the wrong way round this can easily be fixed by right clicking on the extent and selecting Swap Inside.
- Double-click to open the Lithologies in your model.
- Add a new lithology called Tunnel.
- Go to the Chronologies tab and change the Background Lithology to be Tunnel. Press OK.
Now you have a Tunnel volume
- Right-click on the Combined Models folder and create a New Combined Model. Tick the Geological Model and the Tunnel Extent models to combine. Press OK.
- Use the arrows to ensure that the Tunnel Extent is at the top, and use the model tick boxes to tick all of the volumes in the model (you don't have to tick them all if you don't want to combine them all). Press OK.
- Drag your Combined Model into the scene. You will see it is split into the different geological units.
- Right-click on the Combined Model and choose Properties.
This will have a list of the volumes within the tunnel and their volumes.

I checked our code to make sure that rhoW is being subtracted and it is.
Re: What is the .gpf.cache file for?
The gpf.cache file just helps make project faster. It can be deleted safely. I delete them often. There is more information here: https://my.geosoft.com/supportcentre#/kb/kA20c000000YOdoCAG
Re: gxpy write_channel method
Hi Tim,
Apologies for the delay. It appears you are calling the write_channel_va but passing a numpy array instead of a GXva instance to the method. That method is not intended to be used with numpy arrays in the va parameter.

Jacques

Re: gxpy -gxdb.create_line_name
'D1' is a perfectly valid line name. This is basic stuff, so something mysterious is going on.
9.5 was released just last week, but I doubt it is related to the version number. Perhaps installing to make sure all versions are synchronized will fix it.
Sorry about the challenge here...
