• Click on “Save”.
• The Rose Plot is loaded in ArcMap from a saved shape file as a polygon feature class.
• The size of the RosePlot in ArcMap is defined by the extend of the line data selected for plotting.
• The petal colors can be changed in ArcMap (see “Coloring Plots” page 4).
• The appearance and the math to calculate the RosePlot can be changed (see “RosePlot Parameters” page 5).
• The number of features represented in the RosePlot can be displayed by ticking the box “Labels” prior to the transfer to ArcMap (see “Labels” page 6).

Gridding in ArcMap is used when a large amount of line data is spread over a large area.
Gridding of the data will bring out similarities and differences between various locations.
There are two gridded display options.

RosePlots from ‘External’ Attitude Data in ArcGIS
Displaying geological well and outcrop information, such as facies and directional or
trend data in ArcMap is made easy with RosePlot. It plots statistical summaries of
these data at a given location, e.g. an outcrop or well. The example below shows the
facies distribution of a formation and the depositional directions in one of the facies.
The “Data from Excel” tab is an interactive tool that can be run in default mode or
has high flexibility for the more demanding user to choose size of display, type of
plot and standardized colours.

‘External’ Data - Input from Excel File: RosePlot

How to import attitude data from Excel into RosePlot
(i) The import will only work if you have Microsoft Excel on the computer you are using.
(ii) It is best to start ArcMap with the “RP_Example.mxd” and use the demo files supplied with
the RosePlot installation. In the example below we assume you have done that.
1
1. Open RosePlot; select “Data from Excel” tab; select Chart Type
(180o or 360o depending on data).
2. Browse to folder “03_Data Input Examples”. Select file “FracFlts_WELLS_2010.xlsx” .

3. Select the “Sheet” in the Excel file containing
the data you want to plot.
4. Select the “Column” in the Excel file
containing the data you want to plot (select
“TREND” for this demo).
5. Select “Create”. You have created the RosePlot.
6. To export this RosePlot to ArcMap, select the
“Layer” with the point data (“Wells” for this
demo).
7. Select the “Field” which uniquely identifies your
data points (“WELL_NAME” for this demo).
8. Select the data point (“Well_0” for this demo).
9. Click “Save to ArcMap” and your RosePlot will
be plotted at the location of “Well_0”.
Excel ‘Sheets’ are the tabs at the bottom of your spreadsheet
Trick: Give the “Sheet” in Excel the same name as the
“point” in ArcMap (Red line in figure on left). RosePlot
automatically updates the “point” when you change the
sheet selection. Use a different sheet for each location.
This saves a lot of time when you have to plot data from
many different location with the same RosePlot
parameters.

4. Select the “Column” in the Excel file
containing the data you want to plot (select “Facies”).
5. Select “Create”. You have created the Pie Chart showing the
frequency of occurrences of each Facies.
6. To export this RosePlot to ArcMap, select the “Layer” with
the point data (“Wells” for this demo).
7. Select the “Field” which uniquely identifies your data points
(“WELL_NAME” for this demo).
8. Select the data point (“Well_01” for this demo).
9. Click “Save to ArcMap” and your RosePlot will be plotted at
the location of “Well_01”.
Note: Use Excel functions to create e.g.
facies thickness distribution. Then import
this data into RosePlot to create Pie
Charts in ArcGIS.
Trick: Give the “Sheet” in Excel the same
name as the “point” in ArcMap (Red line
in figure on left). RosePlot automatically
updates the “point” when you change
the sheet selection. Use a different sheet
for each location. This saves a lot of time
when you have to plot data from many
different location with the same RosePlot
parameters.

‘External’ Data - Changing Plot Size
Page 15
Changing the Plot Size
The plot size in the ArcMap display can be adjusted for
all the plots created in the “Data from Excel” tab.
RosePlot – Plot Size
This has to be done in RosePlot by changing the
“Radius” settings prior to the ArcMap transfer (Save
to ArcMap).
Three pre-defined size options are available, in
addition to the option “Specify” that allows
customized settings.
‘External’ Data - Excel Formatting Hints
When importing data from Excel into RosePlot it is important that the Excel data has the correct format.
For spreadsheet format examples see the spreadsheet files in the demo data set.
• Close any open Excel spreadsheets before using RosePlot.
• Do not enter new data into the spreadsheet while RosePlot is open.
• Only one header row is allowed in the spreadsheet.
RosePlot reads the first cell of each column and assumes the cell below is a cell with data.
• Empty cells within a column of data are not allowed. The no value entry is -999.
• For the RosePlots only numerical values are allowed (without commas, full stops or hyphens).
• For the pie charts numerical values and letters are allowed (without commas, full stops or hyphens).

About RosePlot
Page 17
RosePlot for ArcGIS was developed in 2001 by GeoTech in Bahrain (Joerg Mattner & Rajasekar Ganesan). There was the need to display large amounts of trend data
in it’s petroleum geoscience projects on a single well to country scale. Early versions concentrated on the display of lineaments and faults derived from seismic and
remote sensing data (RosePlot v 1.x and 2.x). Soon it became apparent that it would be useful to display this structural geological data together with data derived
from well logs (e.g. borehole image data, caliper logs) and outcrop mapping. The import of external (non-GIS) data into ArcMap was required (RosePlot v3.x). From
RosePlot 3.2 onwards the display of sedimentological data both as trend plots and pie- charts was added. The well log derived sedimentological and structural data
required the introduction of sometimes complex filters (e.g. dual GR cut-off, selection of data based on certain caliper ratios). We added a sophisticated filter
module geared to well logs within RosePlot (v.3.5).
RosePlot version 4.0 has been recoded by FrOG Tech for ArcGIS 10.x Both companies, GeoTech and FrOG Tech, share now the release and further development of
RosePlot. We decided to take out the filter module in RosePlot 4.0 , since complex customized filtering can be more easily accomplished in Excel, prior to reading
the data into RosePlot.
Applications for RosePlot
Main Features of RosePlot
• RosePlot is an add-in for ArcGIS 10
• RosePlot calculates and displays in ArcMap
- circular statistical trends of line features
- statistical trends of orientation data from an external source (Excel files)
- statistical trend variations of line features over large areas
- density distribution of large populations of line features
• Other functionalities include
- display of pie-charts from external data sources
- customized petal width and plot size
- switch between strike /trend and azimuth display
- manual input of data to be displayed as rose plots or pie-charts
Structural Geology: display of trend and directional data in GIS from
outcrop, remote sensing, well bores and seismic; such as lineaments, foldaxis (strike & plunge), structural grain, structural dip (strike & dip
direction), faults, fractures, bore-hole break-outs, paleo- and present-day
stress.
Sedimentology: display of trend and directional data in GIS from
outcrops and well bores; such as depositional direction of fluvial
sandstones and turbidites. Lithology or facies displays as pie-charts in
ArcMap (wells and/or outcrops).
Petroleum Exploration & Production : display of net-to-gross, prospect
risk comparison; orientation of depositional, diagenetic or structural flow
heterogeneities in GIS.
Other: (meteorology, biology, morphology) RosePlot has been used for
the trend display of large data sets (line features) in ArcMap; such as the
daily or seasonal movement direction of collared animals, the plotting of
wind directions, and the directional changes of river beds.
