Subsurface Visualization Solution

Transform borehole and well data into clear, editable subsurface interpretations.

Create Geological Cross-Sections and 3D Fence Diagrams from Borehole Data

WinFence transforms borehole and well data into detailed, editable geological cross-sections—without manual CAD drafting. Correlate strata, model faults and lenses, and display completed sections as 3D fence diagrams.

WinFence borehole correlation and subsurface visualization workflow

Develop an initial interpretation and refine every geological boundary using professional judgment.

Use borehole and well data directly

Generate an editable initial correlation

Refine boundaries with geological snapping

View completed sections as 3D fence diagrams

Professional Tools for Geological Interpretation

WinFence is the subsurface visualization module within GaeaSynergy. It shares project and borehole data with WinLoG, reducing duplicate data entry and keeping interpretations connected to the source information.

Cross-Section Capabilities

  • Direct access to WinLoG borehole and well data
  • Automatic, editable preliminary strata correlation
  • Manual refinement of interpreted boundaries
  • Boundary snapping between connected strata
  • Support for layers, lenses, faults, intrusions, and alteration zones
  • Correlation with intersecting cross-sections

Presentation and Output

  • Detailed, full-colour geological sections
  • Integrated borehole and well log plotting
  • Editable geological contacts and structures
  • 3D display of completed sections as fence diagrams
  • Consistent project data across WinFence and WinLoG
  • No general-purpose CAD experience required

The generated interpretation is a starting point, not a replacement for professional geological judgment. Every correlation and boundary can be reviewed and adjusted by the user.


WinFence Compared with a Manual CAD Workflow

General-purpose CAD can draw a cross-section, but WinFence is designed around borehole data, geological correlation, and connected subsurface interpretation.

From Borehole Data to Geological Interpretation

Build, review, and present a connected subsurface interpretation in three practical steps.

Step 1

Select the Section

Select boreholes or wells and define the cross-section alignment.

Step 2

Generate and Interpret

Create an initial correlation from borehole data, then review and refine the geology.

Step 3

Present in 2D or 3D

Produce full-colour sections and combine completed sections into a 3D fence diagram.

Applications and Users

WinFence is designed for geologists, geotechnical engineers, hydrogeologists, environmental consultants, mining professionals, and subsurface data managers.

Geotechnical and Infrastructure

Site investigations, transportation corridors, foundations, and engineering geology.

Environmental and Groundwater

Contaminant investigations, monitoring programs, hydrogeology, and water-resource studies.

Mining and Energy

Mineral exploration, mine geology, oil and gas investigations, and regional subsurface interpretation.

Common Questions About WinFence

Quick answers for teams evaluating a borehole-based cross-section workflow.

Does WinFence replace geological judgment?

No. It can generate an initial correlation, but the geoscientist reviews and edits the interpretation.

Does it work with WinLoG data?

Yes. WinFence and WinLoG share project and borehole data within GaeaSynergy.

Can sections be viewed in 3D?

Yes. Completed cross-sections can be combined and displayed as a 3D fence diagram.
