In this work is developed a new four-dimensional algorithm for studying geological features on Mars using high-resolution stereo camera. The 4-D B-spline model has been implemented to reconstruct such as craters. solid simultaneously trace tag craters in sequences of camera slices by completely identifying surfaces which ally themselves with attached pixels. study shows that can identify flow p...

In this paper we present a novel Point-based pattern analysis for predicting Cassiterite (tin-ore) as a secondary mineral deposit in the Plateau Younger Granite Region of Nigeria (PYGR) using statistics, spatial analysis and machine learning techniques. Existing mining data points collected from field survey in the PYGR and the geological map of the region were digitized and converted into shap...

The improved quality and dense sampling of 3-D seismic data has greatly increased the e ectiveness of attribute analysis for seismic interpretation. The availability of seismic attribute images and cubes can greatly facilitate the interpretation of large and complex data volumes. Many seismic attributes that are currently in use are based on parameters that bring forward changes of signal chara...

A new approach towards automating the interpretation of geological structures like horizons or faults in reflection seismic data images is presented. Although automatic horizon tracking across faults to thereby determine geologically valid correlations is an important and time consuming task, it has still not been solved satisfactorily. The reason for this is the difficulty involved in locating...

The relationships between geological features and rockmass behaviors under complex geological environments were investigated based on multiple intelligence classifiers. Random forest, support vector machine, bayes’ classifier, fisher’s classifier, logistic regression, and neural networks were used to establish models for evaluating the rockmass stability of slope. Samples of both circular failu...

We apply a new formulation of the integral equation (IE) method with inhomogeneous background conductivity (IBC) for modeling marine controlled source electromagnetic (MCSEM) data in areas with significant bathymetric inhomogeneities. We also introduce an approach for accuracy control of the IBC IE method. This new approach provides us with the ability to improve the accuracy of computations by...

As a provider of geological advice to industry, academia and the public, the British Geological Survey (BGS) has recognised the need to change the way it presents geoscientific information, resulting in the construction of attributed 3D geological models. The need to deliver 3D modelling solutions is of great importance in urban areas, where geological factors play a major role in supporting gr...

Throughout this dissertation, solutions for rapid digitalization of ideas will be defined. More precisely, the focus is on interactive scientific sketching and communication of geology, where the result is a digital illustrative 3D model. Results are achieved through a sketch-based modelling approach which gives the user a more natural and intuitive modelling process, hence leading to a quicker...

With the development of computer technology and geological modeling study of the gradual maturity, 3D for the engineering geological modeling and information visualization analysis system of opportunities and challenges brought about. Have carried on the detailed introduction to the three dimensional geological modeling tool and the method. Summarized the three dimensional geological modeling b...

The ‘Cyborg Astrobiologist’ has undergone a second geological field trial, at a site in northern Guadalajara, Spain, near Riba de Santiuste. The site at Riba de Santiuste is dominated by layered deposits of red sandstones. The Cyborg Astrobiologist is a wearable computer and video camera system that has demonstrated a capability to find uncommon interest points in geological imagery in real-tim...
