Should the borehole navigator recognize the station equations within the existing profile cell automatically? I have entered the correct chain, geopak regions, and the borings are being displayed at the correct elevations. However, after the first station equation, the boreholes begin to get farther and farther away from their correct station location. Can anyone help me troubleshoot this situation?
what version of geopak are you using? does your station equation have a gap or overlap? did you plot the profile cell with gaps or no gaps?

Geopak SS2. I did not create the profile. I do know that the profile was created with inroads and the other tech created the geopak profile. This is what he said about the geopak profile: "The stations equations were inserted to match the alignment report of the inRoads geometry. This does cause the geopak alignment to be broken into multiple regions - and I do recall there being some regions that began with a station range lower than the previous region by a few feet. I'm not totally familiar with how gInt plots the boring log in the profile but I would imagine this might cause some issues". I did make sure to include the geopak regions in the gINT file before I exported the GTD.
ok. you need to check that the alignment and the profile in the gpk match.
That has been verified. I asked the CAD Tech. and he is going to try re-plotting the profile with gaps to see if that fixes it. I'm not sure if he used that option the first time or not. I'll keep you posted on whether or not this solves the problem.
I just saw where you can choose gaps or no gaps in the define profile origin dialogue box from the borehole navigator. The profile was created with no gaps and after I set it to plot the borings with no gaps, it solved the issue! Thank you for taking the time to help me with a solution.
