WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:05.000 The letters "USGS" and the words "Science for a Changing World" appear in green and fade to black. 2 00:00:05.000 --> 00:00:12.700 When you want to visualize your data, you can do it by coloring or contouring the grid with the data set in which you are interested. 3 00:00:12.700 --> 00:00:12.733 4 00:00:12.733 --> 00:00:19.999 If there are a lot of grid lines, the first thing you may want to do is hide them which do with the "Show or hide 2D grid lines" button 5 00:00:20.000 --> 00:00:33.466 Next, you can click and the "Data visualization" button and select the data set in which you are interested. 6 00:00:33.466 --> 00:00:40.832 If you select the "Data|Show Grid Valuesand display the Grid Values dialog box, 7 00:00:40.833 --> 00:00:49.933 you can see the value of the cell underneath the cursor displayed in the Grid Values dialog box 8 00:00:49.933 --> 00:00:53.033 along with an explanation how value was assigned. 9 00:00:53.033 --> 00:01:05.233 Sometimes the display can be improved by selecting a different color scheme 10 00:01:05.233 --> 00:01:08.033 You can also contour your data. 11 00:01:08.033 --> 00:01:13.899 First, I'll turn off coloring the data. 12 00:01:13.900 --> 00:01:28.433 And then I will contour the same dataset. 13 00:01:28.433 --> 00:01:33.366 There are a variety of options that can help you get a better display of your data. 14 00:01:33.366 --> 00:01:37.932 One thing to do is to only show the values of cells that are active. 15 00:01:37.933 --> 00:01:47.966 Here, I'm going to look at the hydraulic conductivity 16 00:01:47.966 --> 00:02:00.332 and change that so we only see the active cells. 17 00:02:00.333 --> 00:02:05.066 Hydraulic conductivity can vary over a large range of values. 18 00:02:05.066 --> 00:02:27.999 Sometimes coloring the grid with the logarithm of the hydraulic conductivity helps make the display easier to understand. 19 00:02:28.000 --> 00:02:37.933 And again, sometimes changing the color scheme can help. 20 00:02:37.933 --> 00:02:41.999 And the color adjustment can also be changed. 21 00:02:42.000 --> 00:02:50.666 You may have to experiment with settings to get values that you like. 22 00:02:50.666 --> 00:02:56.699 However, the data set values will only be calculated the first time you to display the data 23 00:02:56.700 --> 00:03:05.733 so if you change the settings for displaying the data, it shouldn't take too long to update the data 24 00:03:05.733 --> 00:03:12.299 Another thing that can be helpful especially when displaying model results is to use the filtering capability. 25 00:03:12.300 --> 00:03:20.833 For example, suppose I want to look at the flux through a series of wells defined in the Multinode Well package. 26 00:03:20.833 --> 00:03:27.366 I select File|ImportIModel Results... 27 00:03:27.366 --> 00:03:40.732 and change the file type to binary flow file and select the .cbc file which stands cell-by-cell flow file 28 00:03:40.733 --> 00:03:49.966 and I will import the multinode flows for the last stress period. 29 00:03:49.966 --> 00:03:56.032 You'll notice that when I move the cursor over the grid, 30 00:03:56.033 --> 00:04:05.333 that the value displayed on the status is zero for most cells but for a few cells it's a different value. 31 00:04:05.333 --> 00:04:10.233 Now, that makes sense because most of the cells don't have multi-node wells in them. 32 00:04:10.233 --> 00:04:17.133 So let's only color the cells that do have a value for the multi-node wells. 33 00:04:17.133 --> 00:04:20.733 Put in a zero for the values to ignore 34 00:04:20.733 --> 00:04:22.399 Apply. 35 00:04:22.400 --> 00:04:26.766 Now we see that some cells are colored but most cells are not. 36 00:04:26.766 --> 00:04:32.799 Those are few of the options for displaying your data in ModelMuse. 37 00:04:32.800 --> 00:04:40.533 I would like to thank Antoine Kocher and C. Justin Mayer for allowing me to display their models 38 00:04:40.533 --> 00:04:45.499 The letters "USGS" and the words "Science for a Changing World" appear in green.
