surfaces from horizons

The surfaces from horizons module provides complete control of displaying, scaling and exploding one or more geologic surfaces from the set of surfaces output by gridding and horizons. This module allows visualization of the topology of any or all surfaces and\or the interaction of a set of individual surfaces.

surfaces from horizons can explode geologic surfaces analogous to how explode_and_scale explodes layers created by horizons to 3d or 3d estimation. The ability to explode the surfaces is integral to this module.

surfaces from horizons also allows the user to either color the surface according to the surface Elevation or any other data component exported by gridding and horizons.

Module Input Ports

• Z Scale [Number] Accepts Z Scale (vertical exaggeration) from other modules
• Explode [Number] Accepts the Explode distance from other modules
• Input Geologic Field [Field] Accepts a data field from gridding and horizons to krige data into geologic layers.

Module Output Ports

• Z Scale [Number] Outputs Z Scale (vertical exaggeration) to other modules
• Explode [Number] Outputs the Explode distance to other modules
• Output Field [Field] Outputs a 3D data field which can be input to any of the Subsetting and Processing modules.
• Surface [Renderable]: Outputs to the viewer.

Properties and Parameters

The Properties window is arranged in the following groups of parameters:

• Properties: controls Z Scale and Explode distance
• Surface Settings: controls translation, hierarchy and surface selection
• Data Settings: controls clipping, processing (Log) and clamping of input data and kriged outputs.
