Hi,
I have been a COMPASS user the last two decades. Four years ago I have
switched to Therion for the mainly tasks, but I need also powerful
COMPASS tools like:
* Blunder and gross errors detection:
https://www.fountainware.com/compass/HTML_Help/Project_Manager/findblunders.htm
* Complex Plotting:
https://www.fountainware.com/compass/HTML_Help/Compass_Viewer/complexplot.htm
* Graph Tools:
https://www.fountainware.com/compass/HTML_Help/Compass_Viewer/graphtools.htm
To can use this tools and need to convert files: " .th" --> " .dat" and
Export from Therion to ".plt"
To use "COMPASS Viewer", where are the graph and complex plotting
tools, I need ".plt" files.
Therion export directly to ".plt" but don't use Compass surveys and
sections. A Therion survey is equivalent to Compass section. And
Therion centerline is equivalent to Compass survey. All the data
exported from Therion to .plt are in only one Compass Section/survey.
And the export option "-disable splay-shots" do anything, the ".plt"
have always the splay shots.
An other approach is to export to ".3d". From AVEN I can disable the
splays an export to ".plt". The files have the same problem, don't
export the data by surveys.
Actually I am exporting to ".3d". In AVEN I disable splay shoots, and
select one survey and export. I repeat for all surveys. After I
copy&paste all the data to one only file, and do two tweaks to have a
good ".plt" to work with "Compass Viewer tools".
It would be much more efficient to be able to export Therion models
directly to .plt files, with Compass section and survey.
I really only need to export in one of the concepts (section or survey)
the Therion surveys to be able to use the tools.
To import Compass ".dat" files to Therion ".th" I use Auriga or
Topodroid. It's fine.
Searching in the mail Archive I have found Torsten have made a excel
macro tool too.

The inverse conversion is more problematic. Topodroid do a similar
Therion/Survey approach, and put all the data in only one survey. Here
is very important to have all the data in surveys (centerline) and
sections (survey), with its survey date and fix station or declination.
To be able to use the Blunder detection tool I will have to reconstruct
by hand all the header information of the survey (date and fix station
or declination).
I'm doing tests with Auriga, but for now I don't have good results either.
Regards,
Evaristo.
