Abstract

In our work we present techniques for illustrative rendering of interpreted seismic volume data by adopting elements from geology book illustrations. We also introduce combined visualization techniques of interpreted and uninterpreted data for validation, comparison and interdisciplinary communication reasons. We introduce the concept of smooth transitions between these two semantical levels. To achieve this we present transfer functions that map seismic volume attributes to 2D textures that flow according to a deformation volume describing the buckling and discontinuities of the layers of the seismic data.
