Reconstruction of 3D Strata Model Based on Data from Multiple Sources

Article Preview

Abstract:

Given the multiple-sources feature of geological interface data, in this paper we propose a universal 3D modelling method using data forms presented as dirllhole diagrams, geologic sections, and vectorized contour maps. In our strategy, data from different sources are all treated as discrete property points, upon which cubic interpolation interpolation is performed to make a denser grid. The final step is accomplished through constrained Delaunay triangulation of the top and bottom grids and boundaries to generate the strata model through triangular strips. Our method merges all kinds of data sources available into one single modelling process, thus the most realistic result is guaranteed.
