To effectively use Hawkeye software, ensure your system meets the recommended specifications:
2) Website-Based Update
Visit hawkeye3d.com and go to the Support page. Click on the Download Update Hawkeye for
Windows button to download a Microsoft Installer file. Running this file will read your HASP key—a
hardware-based licensing mechanism—and determine the latest available version for your license.
If your HASP key (a physical or software-based dongle used for software licensing) and license are not
current due to lapsed maintenance payments, you will only be able to install the most recent version
released before your maintenance expired.
Video 4: Moving Around in the 3D
3D space Navigation:
1) Panning (To move the view horizontally or vertically within the 3D environment): Press and hold the
left mouse button while moving the mouse in the desired direction.
2) Enter: Tab Key
3) Zooming: Hold down the right mouse button while simultaneously using the mouse wheel
4) Moving up or down: By using the mouse wheel
5) Adjust speed of travel up or down a curve: Using step dropdown menu at bottom of interface (depth
control)
6) Navigate to specific depth on curve: Manually enter the measured depth or total vertical depth and
press the Tab key
7) Change to another curve: Double-clicking on the other curve
-Top left corner of the screen: displays 3D information showing your position on curve.
- A slider (located at the bottom of the interface): Allows for quick scroll to the beginning or end of a
curve
- Remove Target Reticle (Visual indicators for targeting specific points): use space bar (as long as cursor
is in the 3D space)
For more customization, access the 3D screen tab and explore additional options under the settings tab
to tailor the display to your preferences.

selecting the Vertical Section View (VS) icon, which is typically labeled as "vs" and located on either the
left or right side of the interface. After selecting the VS, click on the Top View option to switch to an all-
encompassing 2D display screen.
Panning: press and hold the right mouse button while moving the mouse.
Zooming in or out: Use the scroll wheel on your mouse. To focus on specific areas of the view: Hold
down the left mouse button to draw a selection box
To re-orient view after excessive zooming or panning: Click and drag downward or upward to the left
using the left mouse button and release the button. The view will return to its default state,
VSP (Vertical Section Plane): geometric plane that determines the orientation and position for creating
vertical cross-sectional views of your data.
- Adjusting the VSP changes the perspective of the vertical sections
- Each curve in Hawkeye can have its own VSP
- Modifying the VSP under VSU (Vertical Section Unit) will apply the selected VSP to all curves within
the same pad
- Clicking on the customization button allows for exploring and adjusting different aspects of your
graph according to your analysis needs.
- Additionally, the Settings button provides access to a range of 2D graph options, allowing you to
fine-tune the display, measurement units, and other graphical elements.
Video 6: HawkEye Data Tree
Data Tree – Displays all the data/ projects in your currently open database
The currently open database can be identified by the path shown at the top of the screen.
-The Data Tree Tab provide access to the Data Tree section
-To modify any element within the Data Tree, right-click on the desired item and select the "Edit"
option.
- Projects: Hold important information such as surface locations (serves as the reference point for all
drilling activities), units, and North references.
-The safety ruleset is a predefined framework that outlines various safety protocols and guidelines
relevant to drilling or other operations.
- Pads/Platforms: Refers to a larger drilling site that encompasses one or more slot. Has a location and
default elevation associated with it.
- Slot: Identified by the Derrick Icon. Each slot corresponds to a physical well location that can have
unique parameters and operational data associated with it.
- The reference slot is always in bold.
- Slot data: well's coordinates (Northing and Easting), elevation, and rig floor height
- The well head location can be defined using, Local coordinates (for reference slot local coordinates
is (0,0)), Northing and Easting coordinates or latitude and longitude
Within each slot, users can define curves—work curves and proposal curves.
Work curves: Identified by the W icon. A curve representing actual drilling paths taken during
operations. Seen by the icon
Proposal curves: Identified by the P icon. A curve outlining planned drilling paths.
