**SecInterp** (Section Interpreter) is a professional QGIS plugin designed for industrial-grade extraction and visualization of geological data. It empowers geologists to generate high-fidelity topographic profiles, project outcrops with structural integrity, and perform complex 3D drillhole analysis within a unified 2D cross-section environment.

## 🆕 What's New in v3.0.1
**Phase: Extreme Stability & Global Reach**

### 🛡️ Core Stability
- **Zero Signal Leaks**: Eliminated all 22 leaks detected by `qgis-analyzer`, ensuring long-term UI stability.
- **Improved Maintainability**: Refactored `SignalManager` and applied project-wide `Black`/`Ruff` formatting.

### 🌏 Global Expansion
- **11-Language Support**: Added official support for **Hindi (HI)** and **Japanese (JA)**.
- **Optimized Distribution**: Reduced plugin size by ~80% through aggressive exclusion patterns.

See [CHANGELOG.md](docs/CHANGELOG.md) for complete details.

## 🌟 Key Features

### 1. Interactive Preview System
*   **Real-time Visualization**: Instantly view topography, geology, and structures along any drawn section line.
*   **Performance**: Uses **Parallel Processing** to handle complex geological intersections without freezing QGIS.
*   **Adaptive Level of Detail (LOD)**: Automatically adjusts data density based on zoom level for smooth navigation.
*   **Measurement Tools**: Measure distances and calculate slopes/gradients directly on the profile view with automatic **Snapping** to vertices.
*   **Drillhole Support**: Project 3D drillhole traces and geological intervals (sondajes) onto the 2D cross-section plane.

![Main Interface](docs/images/ui_main_dialog.png)

### 2. Data Extraction
*   **Topography**: Extracts elevation profiles from any DEM raster.
*   **Geology**: Projects polygon outcrops onto the section line, respecting valid lithological boundaries.
*   **Structure**: Projects dip/strike measurements with configurable buffer zones and apparent dip calculations.

### 3. Geological Interpretation
*   **Interactive Drawing**: Draw interpretation polygons directly on the profile view.
*   **Smart Snapping**: Accurately snap vertices to existing topographic or geological features.
*   **Auto-Color**: Automatically assigns vivid colors to distinguish new interpretations.
*   **Undo/Redo**: Flexible editing with right-click undo support during drawing.

### 4. Professional Export
*   **Formats**: Export directly to **SHP**, **CSV**, **DXF**, **PDF**, **SVG**, or **PNG**.
*   **Layout**: Results are ready for CAD integration or reporting.

## 📋 Requirements

Before installing **SecInterp**, ensure your system meets the following requirements:

*   **QGIS**: 3.28 LTR or superior.
*   **Python**: 3.10 or superior (included with QGIS).
*   **Dependencies**: The plugin uses standard QGIS and PyQt5 libraries. Advanced analysis and development tools (like the **QGIS Plugin Analyzer** tool, executed via the `qgis-analyzer` command, and `ai-context-core`) are only required for developers and auditors.

## 📖 Quick Start Guide

For detailed instructions, please see the [**User Guide**](https://geociencio.github.io/sec_interp_docs/USER_GUIDE.html).

1. **Prepare Data**: Load your DEM (Raster), Geology (Polygons), and Structure (Points) layers in QGIS.
2. **Launch Plugin**: Click the **SecInterp** icon in the toolbar.
3. **Configure Layers**:
    *   **DEM**: Select your elevation raster and band.

        ![Layer Setup](docs/images/workflow_01_select_dem.png)

    *   **Cross-section**: Select the line layer that defines your profile.

        ![Layer Setup](docs/images/workflow_03_select_section_line.png)

    *   **Geology**: Select the outcrop layer and the lithology attribute field.

        ![Layer Setup](docs/images/workflow_05_geology_setup.png)

    *   **Structure**: Select the point layer and dip/strike fields.

        ![Layer Setup](docs/images/workflow_06_structural_setup.png)

    *   **Drillholes (Optional)**: Configure Collars, Survey, and Intervals in the **Drillholes** page to project 2D drillhole traces.
