Rendering Faults in 3D

[d...@intrepid-geophysics.com]

SOme of you like to work on a 3D model of your fault network, as one
way of starting to do 3D geological modelling. Geomodeller allows you
to define faults as "infinite" or finite. ie limited to parts of your
project space. The definition of what faults start and end on what
other faults, is handled in a spreadsheet, that can be exported as a
".csv" file. Currently, you cannot import this list, but we will
address this soon.
What we have done, is change over to an underlying "tetrahedron"
representation of the 3D volumes, now making the 3D fault surfaces,
and their intersection with other fautls, significantly sharper and
tighter, all automatically achieved.
We see some people wanting to marry various depth to basement
interpretations, with their basement fault networks, and Geomodeller
is ideal for this task, given the speed with which you can realise a
3D model.
