Procedures:
When you open a project under Kingdom, the basic windows layout
will contain a 3D basemap (right) and project tree (left) (Figure 2).

10. To start picking your fault, make sure your line is oriented
west (left) to east (right) left click on the Margin fault. To
begin digitizing hit the D-key and then left click on the fault
break that courses through the seismic data. A rubber band
should appear as you go from point to point (Figure 8).
Continue left clicking points along the fault until you either
need to scroll vertically or horizontally to view fault extensions
outside your current view (Figure 8). Use the scroll bar to move
the display so that more of the fault is visible. Continue until
you can no longer pick this fault. Double click to end.
If you enter a point you dont like, you can back up or delete
the last point by hitting the Esc key
To follow the fault downward through the data, drag the rubber

11. Create another fault (unless you already did). Left click on
the second fault displayed in the Faults digitizing menu to
activate it and then hit the D" key to begin digitization. Begin
picking the second fault. If you choose to pick some of the other
faults on the Faults Toolbar, simply activate (click on) the
appropriate named or unassigned fault, hit the D key and start
picking. The two faults you just picked should appear as shown
in the view below (Figure 10). The number of points used to
digitize the fault will vary from interpreter to interpreter.

two-way travel times to the fault surface. Color bar is shown at right.
Note that a color strip appears on the line (Figure 12). The
colors portray travel time to the fault along its extent.
Complete your digitization of the Margin and 2nd fault, and
double click individual faults in the Properties Window Fault
listing. The Margin fault is shown below
