Create project

/app/projects/create

Creates a new project, either empty or with layers imported from a CSV file or a LAS well log. The depth grid chosen here applies to every layer in the project and cannot be changed later. What comes out is a project, with its layers already in place if you imported them, ready for Manage Layers to complete their properties.

Basic information

Field	Purpose	Range	Default
Project Name required	The name the project is listed under. Choose something that identifies the well or prospect at a glance.	2 to 50 characters letters, digits, spaces, hyphens and underscores	—
Description required	A short note on the project's purpose and scope. It is shown alongside the name and has no effect on any calculation.	2 to 50 characters	—
Grid Spacing required	Vertical spacing of the depth grid the project's layers are built on. A finer spacing resolves thinner layers at the cost of more layers to compute.	1 to 10 m	5 m

Limits are the API's unless marked app. The app may offer a narrower range.

Import type

Field	Purpose	Range	Default
Select Import Type required CSV Import LAS Import	Whether the project's layers come from a CSV table or from a LAS well log. The choice decides which upload appears below.	—	—

CSV import

Shown when the import type is CSV.

Field	Purpose	Range	Default
Upload a file	A CSV table with one row per layer giving its top depth, P-wave velocity, S-wave velocity and density, and optionally a formation name. Each row becomes one layer of the new project.	—	—

Limits are the API's unless marked app. The app may offer a narrower range.

LAS import

Shown when the import type is LAS.

Field	Purpose	Range	Default
Upload a file	The LAS well-log file whose curves are turned into layers. It should contain depth plus the sonic or velocity and density curves you want to use.	—	—
Upload a file	An optional companion file that overrides curve units or other metadata missing from the LAS header. Leave it out when the LAS file is complete.	—	—
