The Create New Project application allows you to create a new project. If a project already exists you can open the open the existing project.
How do I create a new project?
-
Choose whether the project will be Single User or Multi User. Note: If choosing Single User, the project will be SQL localDB. Multi User will show additional options for selecting the Server Name and Multi-User Project Server.
- Click
to select a Project Folder location for the
project. Note: The name that you enter
in the Project Name filed
will be
appended to the Project Folder
path creating a new folder, which will become your project folder. -
Enter a Project Name.
-
Click
to select a Data File Folder or leave it blank
to store the
SEG-Y
data in the Project Folder. Note: If
multiple users are mapping to the same
SEG-Y files it can be stored in a location other than the project folder. -
Enter in an optional Description.
-
Click
to select a Coordinate System.
Note:
It is very important to
specify
the coordinate system when the project is first created to ensure that
all the data will be in the same coordinate system. If the coordinate
system is not known it can be left blank and entered at a later time in
the Project
Properties window. -
Click
.
Once a project has been created, you will not need to create it again. If creating a multi-user project, you can set up the various users who will be accessing the project in User Properties.
Project Details
Single User: This option is for singe user projects only and is used to create a local version of your project database. This database type is portable. To create this type of database you must have SQL LocalDB installed on your machine, which is included with the installation (.msi) file. Note: This type of database can only be accessed by one user at a time and is not the right choice for all users.
Multi User: This option is for projects that will have multiple users in it and is used to create a database associated with an instance of Microsoft SQL Server (express or full edition). To create this type of database you must have SQL Server installed on either your local computer or a network machine. Note: This type of database is required when multiple users need to access the same project at the same time.
If you have the necessary SQL components installed, you can convert your database using the Convert Database tool.
Note: With SeisWare 10.0 you are no longer able to create project with a Microsoft Access database. You will still be able to open these projects, and can then convert the database using the Convert Database tool.
Project Name:Specify the name of the project here. The name will automatically be appended to the Project Folder path. For example if Project Folder is C:\Projects and the Project Name is "NewProject" the project will be created in the folder C:\Projects\NewProject.
Project Folder:Select a folder in which to create your project. Most users have a folder for all of their projects. If you do, point the Project Folder to this folder.
Data File Folder: If you wish to use a folder other than the Project Folder for storing your SEG-Y files, enter the path to that folder here, otherwise just leave it blank.
Description:Enter a description for the project. . You can leave this field blank.
Coordinate System:Select a coordinate system for the project. The coordinate system is not mandatory, but setting it will ease the process of importing data into your project.
