The Construction of Seismic and Geological Studies' Cloud Platform Using Desktop Cloud Visualization Technology

3D visualization technology makes full use of 3D seismic information and properties. Using 3D graphics to describe all kinds of complex data fields and the data relation can be easily perceived, it is an important method of seismic and geological research. In petroleum exploration, the high performance graphics workstations are deployed to complete the interpretation work. The traditional application mode leads to the following problems: the utilization of resource is not balanced between different workstations; the lack of hardware, software and data resources sharing; and collaborative research is not convenient between experts in different places. By constructing seismic and geological studies' cloud platform using desktop cloud visualization technology, the traditional C/S architecture software using mode change to B/S mode, the platform improve the utilization rate of resources. The cloud platform realizes the seismic data interpretation work based on the 3D remote visualization technology, and the user needs only a desktop computer to complete all jobs. Through the cloud platform, users can access the software and hardware resources needed during the research by network, collaborative research of experts in different places will be very convenient, and the platform also provide science basis and data support for the comprehensive decisions.
