WinLog can be used to quickly create, edit and print a wide variety of borehole and well logs. The graphical windows interface displays the log as it is changed and shows exactly how the log will look when it is printed. Boring logs and templates can be edited by pointing and clicking, making the program fast and easy to learn. The graphical interface uses the latest Windows features such as floating toolbars, popup menus, smooth scrolling, context sensitive help, and multiple windows.Version 4 of the WinLoG program uses a Microsoft Access data management system to store borehole and project data. This data management system provides you with the ability to effectively manage your project data and interface the data with other applications. A master database is used to keep track of all the projects and directories.WinLoG is a full 32-bit program and is compatible with Windows 98/NT/2000/XP or higher. The program is fully network compatible and there are discounts for purchasing network licenses.There are no limits to the number and types of borehole logs that can be created with the WinLoG program. Logs can contain general borehole data; lithologic descriptions and symbols; sample data; well completion details; geophysical logs; and numerous graphs and text comments.The program comes with several easily customized templates pr new templates can be easily created. Templates can be customized to display different header and footer titles, number and types of columns. A company logo, stored as a bitmap, can also be included in a template. Legends can be created and customized to show lithologic symbol, well symbol, and sample symbol definitions.The WinLoG program has numerous features to make the creation and editing of borehole logs easier and faster. There are many new features in Version 3 and many of the existing features have been enhanced. For more information about the WinLoG program see the links below.

WinLog version 4 is based upon the project concept for data storage, where the user has numerous projects and within each project there are numerous borehole logs. Using this method, a Microsoft Access 97 database is used to store each project. Each project is stored in a separate directory, which can be on the same computer or spread across a network. A master database is used to keep track of projects and their locations. This master project database is also used to store data (such as symbol libraries and text macros) that is common to all projects and applications.The creation and editing of projects is supported by the following features:
- Separate toolbar for project functions only.
- No limit to the number of projects.
- New projects can be easily created. Project directories are automatically created.
- Existing projects can be opened and closed using toolbar and menu commands.
- Projects can be deleted, including project directories.
- Projects not in master database can be imported into master database.
- Multiple borehole logs in a project can be printed at once.
Borehole logs are used to display the results of oil and gas, mining, geotechnical and environmental drilling and sampling. Logs can be used to display soil and rock samples. Logs can contain general borehole data (ex. location, client, project number); lithologic descriptions and symbols for each layer; sample data; well completion details; water level measurements; geophysical logs; and numerous graphs and text columns. Once a log is created it can be easily copied using a toolbar button, and then edited and saved to represent other boreholes on the same site.The creation and editing of borehole logs is supported by the following features:
- Standard Windows new, open, save, and print commands.
- No limit to the maximum depth of a borehole log.

Have you just moved from gINT to LOGDRAFT and need to access your old gINT datafiles? Does your company have a partner who uses gINT?
Borehole Data
The optional LOGDRAFT gINT add-on is a custom importer for gINT database files that will translate both boring log and laboratory test data into a format specifically compatible with your favorite LOGDRAFT log form. It's easy to use: after installing the add-on, you simply select 'Project' > 'Open' from your regular LOGDRAFT opening screen, then pick an existing gINT file to open instead of a LOGDRAFT project. In response, the importer creates a LOGDRAFT-compatible project containing all your your gINT data, reformatted to best fit your LOGDRAFT log form. The original gINT database is not modified.
Borehole Log Template Excel Template
The license cost for the importer is $300, which includes a custom configuration to ensure that all data in your gINT databases gets transferred over to your LOGDRAFT report forms.
Borehole Log Interpretation
To license the add-on, simply send your contact details, along with a copy of your main LOGDRAFT data entry form (it's a file with a .LDT extension that you'll find in your program's shareable configuration file directory) and report form (it'll have a .FDT extension) to support@geosystemsoftware.com
