Visualization of the hydrostratigraphy of the Cold Lake region, Alberta, Canada / by A. Crowe, A. Piggott, L. Andriashek [and Duane McNaughton]. : En13-5/97-135E-PDF

"Efforts to determine the impact of groundwater consumption in conjunction with heavy oil production in the Cold Lake region of Alberta have resulted in an extensive accumulation of hydro-stratigraphic data. Three-dimensional visualization is a method of depicting this data that extends standard methods of subsurface mapping by allowing the areal and vertical distributions of a number of geologic units to be represented simultaneously. The approach developed in this paper transforms contour maps indicating the extent and elevation of each geologic unit into raster data using a method that precisely retains the positioning of the contours. This ensures that the geologic expertise expressed in the contour maps is propagated into the visualization results"--Abstract.
