Image Maps

Surfer image maps use different colors to represent elevations of a grid file. Surfer automatically blends colors between percentage values so you end up with a smooth color gradation over the entire map. You can add color anchors at any percentage point between 0 and 100. Each anchor point can be assigned a unique color, and the colors are automatically blended between adjacent anchor points. This allows you to create color maps using any combination of colors. Add a color scale to show the values of the different colors! Image maps can be created independently of other maps, or can be combined with other map layers. They can be scaled, resized, limited and moved.

Customize your image map by adding color, including a color scale, and
overlaying it with other map layers to make the map as informative as
possible! The above map is created from an image map of Colorado
elevation overlaid with a base map layer showing the county boundaries.

Shaded Relief Maps

Shaded relief maps are raster images based on grid files. Shaded relief maps assign colors based on slope orientation relative to a light source. Surfer determines the orientation of each grid cell and calculates reflectance of a point light source on the grid surface.
The light source can be thought of as the sun shining on a topographic surface. Surfer automatically blends colors between percentage values so you end up with a smooth color gradation over the map. You can add color anchors so each anchor point can be assigned a unique color, and the colors are automatically blended between adjacent anchor points. This allows you to create color maps using any combination of colors. Shaded relief maps can be created independently of other maps, or can be combined with other layers. Shaded relief maps can be scaled, resized, limited, and moved in the same way as other types of maps.

Post Maps
Post maps show XY locations with fixed size symbols or proportionally scaled symbols of any color.

Create post maps independent of other maps on the page, or combined with other map layers. For each posted point, specify the symbol and label type, size, and angle. Also create classed post maps that identify different ranges of data by automatically assigning a different symbol or color to each data range. Post your sample locations, well locations, or original data point locations on a contour map to show the distribution of data points on the map, and to demonstrate the accuracy of the gridding methods you use.


3D Wireframe Map Features

• Display any combination of X,Y, and Z lines
• Use automatic or user-defined color zones to highlight different Z levels
• Stack any number of 3D surfaces on a single page
• Optional hidden line removal
• Overlay any combination of contour, filled contour, base, post, and classed post maps on a surface
• Views of the top or bottom of the surface, or both
• Proportional or independent scaling in the X,Y, and Z dimensions
• Full control over axis tick marks and tick labels
• Add a base with optional vertical base lines
• Display the surface at any rotation or tilt angle

Vector maps

Instantly create vector maps in Surfer to show direction and magnitude of data at points on a map. You can create vector maps from information in one grid or two separate grids. The two components of the vector map, direction and magnitude, are automatically generated from a single grid by computing the gradient of the represented surface.

At any given grid node, the direction of the arrow points in the direction of the steepest descent. The magnitude of the arrow changes depending on the steepness of the descent. Two-grid vector maps use two separate grid files to determine the vector direction and magnitude. The grids can contain Cartesian or polar data. With Cartesian data, one grid consists of X component data and the other grid consists of Y component data. With polar data, one grid consists of angle information and the other grid contains length information. Overlay vector maps on contour or wireframe maps to enhance the presentation!

Vector Map Features

• Create vector maps based on one grid or two grids.
• Define arrow style, color, and frequency
• Symbol color may be fixed, based on vector magnitude or based on a grid file
• Save and load custom color map files for the exact desired display
• Use one of the built-in presets as the color map
• Display color scale bars and vector scale legends
• Scale the arrow shaft length, head length, and width
• Control vector symbol origin
• Choose from linear, logarithmic, or square root scaling methods
• Adjust the layer opacity

 

Base Maps

Surfer can import maps in many different formats to display geographic information.

Base Map Features

• Edit the line, fill, text and symbol properties for individual objects in a base map
• Globally edit the line, fill, text and symbol properties for all objects in a base map
• Import georeferenced images files in real world coordinates
• Manually georeferenced images files in real world coordinates
• Calculate the area and perimeter length of polygons in a base map
• Copy, paste, reshape, move and delete individual objects in a base map
• Add new objects to a base map
• Adjust the layer opacity
• Import, edit, export and label map features with attributes
  

Display all your information! Attributes are imported with your base map files, or can be created. All objects in a base layer can be labeled with attributes. The polygons in this map are labeled with the Secondary attribute.



Load all your base map files to create location maps for your data! Overlay other map types, such as classed post maps, with your base map.

Map layers

Adding multiple map layers to your map gives you a way to combine different types of data in one map. For example, you can drape a georeferenced image over a 3D surface map, overlay multiple base maps with a contour map, or plot a post map with contours over a wireframe map.

And because you can add any number of map layers to a map, you can show any amount of data on a single map. You are limited only by your imagination!

Overlay multiple map layers and adjust the transparency of the upper layers to see the lower layers beneath! This example shows a partially transparent contour map overlaid with a georeferenced image file imported as a base map.

Stacking maps

You can align individual maps horizontally on the page by stacking them. Map stacking was designed to align maps using commensurate coordinate systems. This command is useful for keeping two or more maps separated vertically on the page while keeping relative horizontal positions.

Map Projections

Choose from an endless list of coordinate systems for your map to display. Specify the source coordinate system for each of the layers in your map, and choose to display the map in any other coordinate system! For example, load data and grid files in UTM or State Plane coordinates, and display the map in Latitude/Longitude coordinates! It is simply that easy!

Save the coordinate system information for your grid to an external file for future reuse.

Profiles

Surfer's automatic profile tool makes it easy to visualize the change in Z value from one point to another.

Simply select the map, add a profile, and draw the line on the map. Include as many points as you want in the line; it could be a simple two-point line, or a zig-zag shape. In all cases, the profile is created showing the Z value change along the length of the line. Reshape the line on the map, and the profile automatically updates.

Profiles Features

• Title and font properties
• Setting any areas with missing data to skip, minimum Z value, or a custom value
• Line and fill properties
• X and Y scaling
• Exporting the profile line to a text data file

Customize Your Map

Make your map look its best by customizing it to fit your needs! Surfer offers numerous map features to enhance the look of your map. Use Surfer's defaults, or customize your map by including scale bars, editing colors, lines and fill styles, showing only portions of a map, adjusting the scale and setting axis properties!

Superior Gridding

The gridding methods in Surfer allow you to produce accurate contour, surface, wireframe, vector, image, and shaded relief maps from your XYZ data. The data can be randomly dispersed over the map area, and Surfer's gridding will interpolate your data onto a grid. Use Surfer's default settings or choose from twelve different gridding methods.

Each gridding method provides complete control over the gridding parameters, so you can produce exactly the map you want. If your data are already collected in a regularly spaced rectangular array, you can create a map directly from your data. Computer generated contour maps have never been more accurate.

Gridding Features

• Interpolate from up to 1 billion XYZ data points (limited by available memory)
• Produce grids with up to 100 million nodes
• Specify faults and breaklines when gridding
• Choose from one of the powerful gridding methods: Inverse Distance, Kriging, Minimum Curvature, Polynomial Regression, Triangulation, Nearest
• Neighbor, Shepard's Method, Radial Basis Functions, Natural Neighbor, Moving Average, and Local Polynomial
• Specify isotropic or anisotropic weighting
• You have full control over the grid line geometry including grid limits, grid spacing, and number of grid lines
• Customize search options based on user-defined data sector parameters
• Specify search ellipses at any orientation and scaling
• Use spline smoothing and grid filtering to alter the grid file
• Use grid math to perform mathematic operations between grid files
• Use Nearest Neighbor to create grid files without interpolation
• Use Triangulation to achieve accuracy with large data sets faster
• Detrend a surface using Polynomial Regression, generate regression coefficients in a report, and calculate residuals
• Use data exclusion filters to eliminate unwanted data
• Use duplicate data resolution techniques
• Generate a grid of Kriging standard deviations
• Specify point or block Kriging
• Generate a report of the gridding statistics and parameters including ANOVA regression statistics
• Specify scales and range for each variogram model
• Generate grids from a user-specified function of two variables
• Calculate grids with Data Metrics including: number of points within search ellipse, distance to nearest and farthest neighbor, median, average and offset distance to points within the search ellipse
• Use cross-validation to judge the suitability of the gridding method for the particular data set
• Save grid files in these formats: ADF, AGR, AIG, AM, ASC, BIL, BIN, BIP, BSQ, COL, DAT, DEM, ERS , FLD, FLT, GGF, GRD, GXF, HDF,IMG, LAT, RAW, and VTK
  

Grid Node Editor

Clean up your grid with the grid node editor!

Surfer's powerful grid node editor allows you to view and edit each individual grid node in a grid file. You can edit the grid node's Z value simply by selecting a grid node and entering a new Z value in the edit box. Grid nodes are represented by small black +'s, and blanked nodes (null values) are represented by blue x's, so it is easy to see your exact data.

Variograms

Use the variogram modeling subsystem to quantitatively assess the spatial continuity of data. Variograms may be used to select an appropriate variogram model when gridding with the Kriging algorithm. Surfer uses a variogram grid as a fundamental internal data representation and once this grid is built, any experimental variogram can be computed instantaneously.

Variogram Features

• Virtually unlimited data set sizes
• Display both the experimental variogram and the variogram model
• Specify the estimator type: variogram, standardized variogram, auto covariance, or auto correlation
• Specify the variogram model components: exponential, Gaussian, linear, logarithmic, nugget effect, power, quadratic, rational quadratic, spherical, wave, pentaspherical, and cubic models
• Customize the variogram to display symbols, variance, and number of pairs for each lag
• Export the experimental variogram data
• Download variogram tutorial
  
  

Faults and Breaklines

Define faults and breaklines when gridding your data. Faults act as barriers to the information flow, and data on one side of the fault will not be directly used to calculate grid node values on the other side of the fault. Breaklines include Z values.

When Surfer sees a breakline, it uses the Z value of the breakline in combination with nearby data points to calculate the grid node value. Unlike faults, breaklines are not barriers to information flow and the gridding algorithm can cross the breakline to use a point on the other side to calculate a grid node value. Use breaklines to define streamlines, ridges, and other breaks in slopes.


The gridding methods that support faults are: Inverse Distance to a Power, Minimum Curvature, Nearest Neighbor, and Data Metrics.

The gridding methods that support breaklines are: Inverse Distance to a Power, Kriging, Minimum Curvature, Nearest Neighbor, Radial Basis Function, Moving Average, Data Metrics, and Local Polynomial.

Grid Functions

In addition to creating maps, you can perform a variety of functions using grid files. Just a few of the possibilities include:

Using USGS and SRTM Data

Use USGS Digital Elevation Model (DEM), National Elevation Dataset (NED) and NASA Shuttle Radar Topographic Mission (SRTM) data with any Surfer command that uses grid files.

• Directly use the files in native format without modification or conversion.
• Display information about the files, such as X, Y and Z extents or grid statistics.
• Create contour, vector, shaded relief, image, 3D surface, and 3D wireframe maps from the files.

Worksheet

Surfer lets you massage your data in many ways to achieve the exact output you want. Surfer includes a full-featured worksheet for creating, opening, editing, and saving data files. Data files can be up to one billion rows and columns, subject to available memory. You can cut, copy, and paste data within the Surfer worksheet or between applications.

Worksheet Features

• Import a database directly into the Surfer worksheet
• Calculate data statistics
• Perform data transformations using advanced mathematical functions
• Sort data based on primary and secondary columns
• Spatially filter data

  • Select a predefined coordinate system from Geographic (lat/lon) or one of the supported projected systems (Polar/Arctic/Antarctic, Regional/National, State Plane, UTM, and World)
  • Define a custom coordinate system by selecting a supported projection, specifying the projection settings, and either choosing one of over 400 predefined datums or creating a custom datum
  • Add a frequently used coordinate system to the Favorites list to be easily accessible
• Assign which columns in the worksheet contain the X, Y and Z data
• Use the Find/Replace function in the worksheet to easily find or replace your data
• Print the worksheet

Object and Property Manager

The object manager and property manager makes the editing of any object simple. The object manager displays all the objects in the plot document in an easy-to-use hierarchical tree arrangement.

Double click on objects in the object manager to easily edit them, check or uncheck the check boxes next to their name to show or hide them, drag and drop objects to rearrange the order in which they are drawn, and overlay maps by dragging and dropping map layers from one map frame into another! Select any object or map layer in the object manager for easy deletion.

When an object is selected in the object manager, changes to the object can be made in the property manager. The property manager is a docked window that is always displayed on the screen. You can make the property manager floating or close it, if you do not want it to display. All of the properties for an object are listed in the property manager. For instance, the Contours layer is selected in the object manager in the image below, and you can change the contour layer properties in the property manager. Once the change is made in the property manager, it is immediately applied in the plot window.
