Overview of the Move Tutorials
Move can be used to build geometrically valid interpretations based on geological principles. It is designed by
geologists for geologists, in order to provide a best practice environment for model building and testing
geological interpretations and concepts. The Move tutorials use a range of functionality and cover specific
structural geological scenarios in a clear, guided workflow. It is recommended that new Move users start
from Tutorial 1, because as the tutorials progress, they increase in complexity and tend to assume the basic
principles of Move.
In the following table, each tutorial is marked by a Move Core Application or module logo. In order to use the
kinematic and advanced modules, an active license to the Move Core Application and the module in question
is required.
