The 3D data model is an important issue to be solved in 3DGIS. Based on the study of the basic characteristics of geological objects and the especial requirement for computational 3D geological volume modeling, the authors give out an object-oriented 3D topologic data model for geological volume modeling. In this data model, the geological volumes are divided into four classes: the composite vo...

Preliminary geological investigations have been conducted to find suitable construction site and to assess engineering geological characteristics before detailed in situ investigation for large scale construction activities such as highway, railroad, subway or underground cavern constructions. The geological stability is a very important and critical factor for safe maintenance of structures an...

magnetic data inversion has a prominent role in geo-structural investigations. as lots of geological structures, such as faults, dykes, contacts etc are elongated in a specific direction, 2d algorithms became widespread during the previous years. modifying the existing algorithms on 3d data inversion, a method has been proposed for 2d inversion of profile magnetic data, based on the physical pa...

National geological survey works have characteristics of data enormousness, computing denseness, resource distribution, and applications heterogeneousness. As innovative information infrastructure and service architecture, grid can meet geological survey application requirements by implementing sharing and cooperation of distributed and heterogeneous resources. Based on grid technologies and OG...

The 10.6 km long Sabzkuh water conveyance tunnel is currently under construction in High Zagros structural zone, located in western Iran, has used conventional (in section T1) and mechanized (in section T2) methods. The section T1 of the tunnel driven through alluvial geological units with great complexity in an area high potential for sliding and water-bearing fault which has made the excavati...

the uniaxial compressive strength (ucs) of intact rocks is an important geotechnical parameter required for designing geotechnical and mining engineering projects. obtaining accurate estimates of the rock mass ucs parameter throughout a 3d geological model of the deposit is vital for determining optimum rock slope stability, designing new exploratory and blast boreholes, mine planning, optimizi...

Truncated Gaussian Simulation (TGS) is a well-known method to generate realizations of the ore domains located in a spatial sequence. In geostatistical framework geological domains are normally utilized for stationary assumption. The ability to measure the uncertainty in the exact locations of the boundaries among different geological units is a common challenge for practitioners. As a simple a...
