Geologic Modelling - Research in Geomodelling

Research in Geomodelling

Problems pertainting to Geomodelling cover:

  • Defining an appropriate Ontology to describe geological objects at various scales of interest
  • Integrating diverse types of observations into 3D geomodels: geological mapping data, borehole data and interpretations, seismic images and interpretations, potential field data, well test data, etc.
  • Better accounting for geological processes during model building
  • Characterizing uncertainty about the geomodels to help assess risk. Therefore, Geomodelling has a close connection to Geostatistics and Inverse problem theory.
  • Applying of the recent developed Multiple Point Geostatistical Simulations (MPS) for integrating different data sources

Famous quotes containing the word research:

    One of the most important findings to come out of our research is that being where you want to be is good for you. We found a very strong correlation between preferring the role you are in and well-being. The homemaker who is at home because she likes that “job,” because it meets her own desires and needs, tends to feel good about her life. The woman at work who wants to be there also rates high in well-being.
