Select and Browse Planned or As-Drilled Holes

After you have imported as-drilled holes from the field, use the Select Planned Hole or Select As-Drilled Hole command to select the corresponding hole to either a planned or as-drilled hole in a drill plan (or corridor drill plan bench).

Use these commands to navigate through the planned and as-drilled holes in a drill plan (or corridor drill plan bench):

• Select Next Hole in Row
• Select Previous Hole in Row
• Select Next Hole in Column
• Select Previous Hole in Column
• Select Next Hole in Line
• Select Previous Hole in Line
• Select Hole in Other Line

Different commands are available depending on what kind of hole is selected and what kind of drill plan the hole is in. These commands work for any type of drill hole (split, blast, extra, or unknown).

Note: If an as-drilled hole is selected and there are more than one as-drilled hole (redrills), a Select Next... command will select the as-drilled hole with the next drilling start time. A Select Previous... command will select the as-drilled hole with the previous drilling start time.
