To define a Deposition Model:

•Define the Model Data:

1.Deposition Surface on which deposition will occur

2.Deposition (Raise) elevations

3.Vector Slopes which define how Deposition Vectors move as they are raised

4.Beach profiles which define the sub-aerial, sub-aqueous and cyclone beach shapes

5.Materials, which define:

•The deposition rate

•The Complex Profile which uses Beach Profiles to define the beach shape from the Deposition Point to the Pond

6.Supernatant Pond

7.Deposition Structures from which deposition takes place, comprising:

•Deposition Nodes

•Deposition Paths

•Deposition Lines

•If required define:

oA Boundary String to limit the deposition extent

oTarget/maximum tonnages to:

▪Generate surfaces/output at defined tonnages

▪Stop deposition when a target tonnage is achieved

•Define whether to generate Run Images
