This handbook will assist those interpreting geological structures at map scale from surface to subsurface maps. The 3-D structure is defined by internally consistent structure contour maps and cross sections of all horizons and faults. This new edition includes fresh material, in particular numerous examples of 3-D models and techniques for using models to predict fault and ramp-anticline geometry. The book has also been reorganized to more closely follow the typical interpretation workflow. Text figures are produced in color to assist and to enable the reader to produce better geological maps and cross sections, judge the quality of existing maps, and locate and fix mapping errors. Students and professional geologists in structural geology, sedimentology, petroleum geology and engineering geology, will benefit from this updated edition.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Geological structures are three dimensional, yet are typically represented by, and - terpreted from, outcrop maps and structure contour maps, both of which are curved two-dimensional surfaces. Maps plus serial sections, called 2½-D, provide a closer approach to three dimensionality. Computer technology now makes it possible for geological interpretations to be developed from the beginning in a fully three dim- sional environment. Fully 3-D geological models allow significantly better interpre- tions and interpretations that are much easier to share with other geologists and with the general public. This book provides an overview of techniques for constructing structural interpretations in 2-D, 2½-D and 3-D environments; for interpolating - tween and extrapolating beyond the control points; and for validating the final int- pretation. The underlying philosophy is that structures are three-dimensional solid bodies and that data from throughout the structure, whether in 2-D or 3-D format, should be integrated into an internally consistent 3-D interpretation. It is assumed that most users of this book will do their work on a computer. C- sequently, the book provides quantitative structural methods and techniques that are designed for use with spreadsheets, mapping software, and three-dimensional c- puter-graphics programs. The book is also intended to provide the background for understanding what interpretive software, for example, a computer contouring p- gram, does automatically. Most techniques are presented in both a traditional format appropriate for paper, pencil, and a pocket calculator, and in quantitative format for use with spreadsheets and computer-graphics or computer-aided-design programs.
