Subsurface Computer Modeling, Inc.Grid Solutions II - Single Surface Modeling Techniques
Duration: Two (2) days
Class Type: Short lectures with many exercises on the computer
Who is qualified: Experienced Z-MAP Plus users (an intro Z-MAP Plus course and the Grid Solutions I course
OR
broad experience in creating and editing single surface models)
Who should attend:

Any Z-MAP Plus user who:

  • Regularly works with computer-generated surface models
  • Finds that software defaults create unsatisfactory models
  • Wishes to add more information from interpretations to surface models
  • Gets involved in long editing sessions to clean up or update surface models
  • Wants the tools and knowledge to exercise control over the shapes of surface models
What will they Learn:
PROBLEM
SOLUTION
Noisy data creates noisy grids
Tool to remove high-frequency noise
Surfaces tie poorly to wells, or new data were added after original surfaces were built
Tools and procedures to correct surfaces to control data
Surfaces fit the data but don't match the geological model
Workflows to add geological bias to surface models
Modifying surface models requires long and tedious editing sessions
Tools and workflows for rapid cleanup and reshape of surfaces
Surfaces contain unacceptable features caused by the gridding algorithm
Versatile tools to spot-clean surfaces
Overview:

Grid Solutions II is a two-day course designed to help computer mappers develop surface models that surpass the software defaults. The presentation emphasizes common problems with surface models and introduces participants to solutions that have been developed over two decades of computer mapping. The solution workflows are further simplified by a set of standard macros that reduce complex series of operations to a single step.

The course format consists of short introductory lectures interspersed with lab sessions demonstrating the use of the workflows and tools.
