Accurate salt interpretation involves an integration of geology and geophysics. In the practice of salt interpretation and model building in depth imaging, we see two problems that could happen: exclusive geophysical interpretation without geological input and insufficient geological interpretation without understanding how the geophysical data are processed and without evaluating the limit and...

Various methods have been developed to minimise the consequences of natural disasters. GIS and Remote Sensing methods are very attractive, fast and reliable tools for various natural disaster applications and management. In this study, we investigated natural disasters such as flash-floods, floods, erosion and landslide risks, which have occurred, and are likely to do so again, in a study area ...

However, they played an important role in the understanding of soil properties and land use planning, and came later to provide a useful basis for national soil mapping. The geological surveys gave rise to the so-called Quaternary and Petrological Maps, the first one being published 1857. The maps show mineralogy and texture and genesis of the parent material, e.g. texture of glacial till and w...

Subsurface geological cross sections of 0 200 m depth were constructed using a dense drilling database of the Osaka Plain in the intra-arc Osaka Basin of the Japan island arc, an active plate margin. The cross sections revealed the subsurface geological structures and the geometry of folding and faulting in the basin. The comparison between the constructed subsurface cross sections and the seis...

One of the major strengths of a Geographic Information System (GIS) in geosciences is the ability to integrate and combine multiple layers into mineral potential maps showing areas which are favorable for mineral exploration. These capabilities make GIS an extremely useful tool for mineral exploration. Several spatial modeling techniques can be employed to produce potential maps. However, these...

The display of three dimensional geological body can visually describe the complex subsurface geological structure, effectively improve the engineer's space imagination and intuitively understand the geological spatial relationship. Through analysis of commonly used three dimensional geological data model and considered the impact of faults. The paper establishes a generalized triangular prism ...
