These projects are professionally pre-configured to demonstrate how seamless data-to-drawing can be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Open an example project like &#8220;Geoenvironmental&#8221;, open a borehole log and navigate to the&nbsp;lithology data entry screen. Pay close attention to the&nbsp;Unique Layer Names&nbsp;column (as highlighted in our guide&#8217;s infographic).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Observe the Naming Convention:<\/strong>&nbsp;Notice how every layer\u2014whether it&#8217;s &#8220;Upper Clay,&#8221; &#8220;Sandstone A,&#8221; or &#8220;Lower Till&#8221;\u2014is named with surgical precision.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>The Snapping Secret:<\/strong>&nbsp;In these examples, you can see that the&nbsp;Unique <strong>Layer Name<\/strong>&nbsp;is the &#8220;glue&#8221; that tells WinFence exactly where one borehole ends and the next begins. If you change a single letter in one of these example names, you will see the&nbsp;Cross-Section&nbsp;&#8220;break&#8221; or lose its connection, proving just how vital consistent naming is.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-troubleshooting-why-didn-t-my-strata-generate-correctly\"><strong>Troubleshooting: Why Didn\u2019t My Strata Generate Correctly?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If your cross-section appears blank or contains disconnected &#8220;islands&#8221; of soil layers, check these four common issues:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-1-inconsistent-layer-names\"><strong>1. Inconsistent Layer Names<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The most frequent cause of failure is a naming mismatch in&nbsp;WinLoG.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>The Fix:<\/strong>&nbsp;Ensure that &#8220;Sandstone A&#8221; in Borehole 1 is named&nbsp;<em>exactly<\/em>&nbsp;&#8220;Sandstone A&#8221; in Borehole 2. Even a trailing space or a difference in capitalization can prevent the&nbsp;Unique Layer Name&nbsp;correlation from &#8220;snapping&#8221; the layers together.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2-discontinuous-path-lines\"><strong>2. Discontinuous Path Lines<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>If your&nbsp;Path Line&nbsp;does not physically intersect the borehole locations on your project map, WinFence will not know which data to pull.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>The Fix:<\/strong>&nbsp;Re-draw your path line to ensure the line precisely hits the center of each borehole coordinate.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-gaps-in-vertical-data\"><strong>3. Gaps in Vertical Data<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Automatic generation relies on continuous vertical data. If there is a &#8220;No Recovery&#8221; zone or an unlogged gap between two layers in WinLoG, the auto-correlator may stop at the gap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>The Fix:<\/strong>&nbsp;Ensure all depth intervals are accounted for. If a layer is missing in one well but present in others, you may need to manually draw the &#8220;pinch-out&#8221;  in WinFence.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-overlapping-layers\"><strong>4. Overlapping Layers<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>If two layers in a single WinLoG well have overlapping depth intervals (e.g., Layer 1 ends at 15ft, but Layer 2 starts at 12ft), the software will be unable to determine the boundary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>The Fix:<\/strong>&nbsp;Audit your WinLoG data prep. Ensure all start and end depths for each&nbsp;Unique Layer Name&nbsp;are sequential and do not overlap.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-5-check-your-coordinate-system\"><strong>5. Check Your Coordinate System<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>If your boreholes appear in the wrong order or at incorrect distances on the cross-section, the issue is likely in the GIS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>The Fix:<\/strong>&nbsp;Verify that all wells in the project use the same coordinate system (UTM, State Plane, etc.). WinFence calculates the distance between boreholes based on these coordinates to scale the&nbsp;Path Line&nbsp;correctly. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-6-standardize-your-legend\"><strong>6. Standardize Your Legend<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>If the colors or patterns for the same material (e.g., &#8220;Silty Clay&#8221;) look different across your cross-section, your WinLoG template might be inconsistent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>The Tip:<\/strong>&nbsp;Use a global&nbsp;Library&nbsp;for your lithology symbols. When&nbsp;Unique Layer Names&nbsp;are mapped to a standardized library, WinFence will automatically apply the correct&nbsp;Strata Styles&nbsp;(colors and hatches) uniformly across the entire section.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-5-vertical-exaggeration-adjustments\"><strong>5. Vertical Exaggeration Adjustments<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>If your cross-section looks &#8220;flat&#8221; or too &#8220;stretched,&#8221; you need to adjust the vertical scale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>The Tip:<\/strong>&nbsp;Go to the&nbsp;Edit &gt; Scales&nbsp;in WinFence. Adjusting the&nbsp;Vertical Exaggeration&nbsp;(e.g., setting it to 5x or 10x) can help highlight subtle stratigraphic changes that are difficult to see at a 1:1 scale.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-summary\"><strong>Summary<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Creating a cross-section in WinFence involves drawing a path line and utilizing the software&#8217;s ability to&nbsp;automatically correlate WinLoG data. This process relies heavily on using&nbsp;consistent, unique layer names&nbsp;in WinLoG to ensure &#8220;snapping&#8221; accuracy. Finally, administrators can refine the visual output by editing&nbsp;strata styles&nbsp;and manually adjusting boundaries for a professional finish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-other-resources\"><strong>Other Resources<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gaeatech.com\/public\/Manuals\/GaeaSynergy\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">GaeaSynergy User Guide <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/gaeatech.com\/knowledge-center\/?p=519\">How do I edit and snap boundaries in WinFence?<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/gaeatech.com\/knowledge-center\/?p=522\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">How do I add strata to a cross-section in WinFence?<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/gaeatech.com\/knowledge-center\/?p=1404\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">What Are the Different Types of Strata in WinFence and How Are They Used?<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/gaeatech.com\/knowledge-center\/?p=1407\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">How Do I Edit Strata Styles and Segments in WinFence?<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-related-articles\">Related Articles<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/gaeatech.com\/knowledge-center\/creating-fence-diagrams-winfence\/\">Creating Fence Diagrams in WinFence: A Complete Guide to Subsurface Visualization<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/gaeatech.com\/knowledge-center\/visualizing-stratigraphy-across-sites\/\">Visualizing Stratigraphy Across Sites: A Complete Guide to Subsurface Correlation and Interpretation<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/gaeatech.com\/knowledge-center\/how-to-display-cross-sections-gaeasynergy-project-views\/\">How Do I Use Project Views to Display Cross-Sections in GaeaSynergy?<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/gaeatech.com\/knowledge-center\/edit-strata-styles-segments-winfence-faq\/\">How Do I Edit Strata Styles and Segments in WinFence?<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/gaeatech.com\/knowledge-center\/print-export-cross-section-winfence\/\">How do I Print or Export a Cross-section to a PDF in WinFence?<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/gaeatech.com\/knowledge-center\/how-do-i-add-strata-to-a-cross-section-in-winfence\/\">How do I Add Strata to a Cross-section in WinFence?<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/gaeatech.com\/knowledge-center\/how-do-i-snap-strata-in-winfence\/\">How do I Edit and Snap Boundaries in WinFence?<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the&nbsp;GaeaSynergy&nbsp;ecosystem, the integration between&nbsp;WinLoG&nbsp;and&nbsp;WinFence&nbsp;is a powerful way to transform raw borehole data into professional geologic cross-sections.
