Two-dimensional GIS are extensively used in geology to create, analyse, and interpret geological map models. However, these systems are unable to represent the Earth’s subsurface in three spatial dimensions. The objective of this article is to overcome this deficiency and to provide a general framework for a 3d GIS. The presented approach is based on existing 3d geomodelling theory and software...

This paper describes the application of approximate methods to invert airborne magnetic data as well as helicopter-borne frequency domain electromagnetic data in order to retrieve a joint model of magnetic susceptibility and electrical resistivity. The study area located in Semnan province of Iran consists of an arc-shaped porphyry andesite covered by sedimentary units which may have potential ...

background : improvement of facial beauty is a major reason why patients with dentofacial problems opt for orthognathic surgery. people are eventually judged by their facial appearance by themselves, their friends & family and even surgeons. with the recent developments in technology, we now have a 3d structure that can build and analyze 3d images before & after surgery and review the extent of...

Three-dimensional (3D) geological models are important representations of the results of regional geological surveys. However, the process of constructing 3D geological models from two-dimensional (2D) geological elements remains difficult and is not necessarily robust. This paper proposes a method of migrating from 2D elements to 3D models. First, the geological interfaces were constructed usi...

As a provider of geological advice to industry, academia and the public, the British Geological Survey (BGS) has recognised the need to change the way it presents geoscientific information, resulting in the construction of attributed 3D geological models. The need to deliver 3D modelling solutions is of great importance in urban areas, where geological factors play a major role in supporting gr...

The Jiaodong Peninsula hosts the main large gold deposits and was first production area in China; multisource multiscale geoscience datasets are available. is biggest drilling mineral-exploration zone China. This study used three-dimensional (3D) modeling, geology, ore body alteration to extract synthesize mineralization information analyze exploration targeting Zhaoxian deposit northwestern Pe...

Although spatial objects of our world have an intrinsic three dimensional (3D) natures, 3D data modeling and 3D data management have so far been neglected in spatial database systems and Geographical Information Systems, which map geometric data mainly to two-dimensional abstractions. But increasingly the third dimension becomes more and more relevant for application domains. Large volumes of 3...

Three-dimensional geological modeling is widely used in the field of research. A successful three-dimensional model a anatomy and integration study area. Large-scale limited by software performance technical difficulties. There are disadvantages such as unequal splicing elements, morphological distortion attribute incompatibility. Based on discrete storage method DepthInsight software, this pap...

Geological maps have wide coverage with low acquisition difficulty. When other geological survey data are scarce, they a valuable source of structure information for modeling. However, structures large deformation, map has difficulty meeting the requirement its 3D Therefore, this paper takes dome as an example to explore modeling method based on maps, DEM and related knowledge. The includes: (1...
