AVS as a 3-D seismic data visualizing platform

In an effort to increase SEP’s ability to work with 3-D prestack data sets we have continued the development of our integrated 3-D seismic visualizer using Advanced Visual Systems (AVS) as our integrating platform. To the capacity of displaying SEP data sets, we have added the ability to simultaneously display non-seismic 3-D geophysical and geological data. The main thrust of our work has been the integration of GOCAD model building tool into AVS. To achieve this goal we have developed a few AVS modules to convert GOCAD surface into AVS geometry objects. In addition, we have begun integrating SEP batch programs into our AVS environment. Specifically, we have added an interactive wave modeler, which can be viewed simultaneously.
