These tutorials provide step-by-step instructions on how to use some of the most common Vulcan features. Our documentation team has also been working hard to provide new user-friendly tutorials. We believe this new option will save the user time and effort when importing data from other packages.
Once the import is performed, the parameters will be saved in a new specification file for later use, such as for unattended import scripts. The new option does not require that users have a pre-existing design like previous versions did. We have created a new CSV import option that will allow imports of CSV files into databases to be done more quickly. In next week’s blog Tom Sweet, Vulcan Director of Global Quality Assurance, will explain why Vulcan 8.2 is the most-tested version ever created by Maptek, and why users should feel comfortable upgrading whenever there is a Vulcan release. The Maptek Quality Assurance team has been working hard to ensure that each and every release of Vulcan is more rigorously tested.
However, for those that need more colours, Vulcan 8.2 makes the migration painless and provides all the colour a user will ever need. We have made this feature optional so that future versions of Vulcan are backwards compatible with the old colour indexing scheme. In Vulcan 8.2, we removed this limitation and have provided 256 indexed colour palettes with 24 bit colour depth, or over 16 million colours. Prior to 8.2, Vulcan provided only 32 indexed color palettes with a 12 bit colour depth, or 4096 colours. Although this is just a first step in our Large Data Management roadmap, users who had large designs, grids, triangulations or block models that could not load in the past can start up Vulcan 8.2 on a 64-bit O/S I think they will be happy they did. In the Vulcan 8.1.4 and 8.2 releases we have provided 64-bit users the ability to utilize the entire 64-bit memory space, allowing for larger datasets to be managed within Vulcan. In this inaugural installment, I will review a couple of the noteworthy advancements that users don’t want to miss in the Vulcan 8.2 release this November.įor a number of years now, Vulcan memory has been limited to less than 4GB, even on 64-bit systems. A couple of years ago I was asked if we could make Maptek Vulcan “Bigger, Better and Faster”.
