1、OpendTect dGB Plugins User Documentation version 4.22.4. Benchmark Steering Cube CreationIn this chapter the quality and speed of the available steeringalgorithms are compared in order to guide the choices for the right SteeringCube algorithm. First, the results of a test on a standard data set are

2、presented to give an indication of the speed of SteeringCube calculation versus the chosen algorithm and calculation cube sizeparameter (where applicable). Then, a visual quality check on one of the inlines is presented. This is done by checking the crossline dip, which is directly extracted from th

The size of the calculation cube also plays an important role. Next, the application of additional dip-st

The inline was selected because many geological and seismic features are visible, which enable evaluation of the performance of the algorithm in different environments.Figure 2-2

Crossline dip attributeThe crossline dip is one of the two SteeringCube components (together with inline dip) and is related to the dips projected in the crossline direction. In Figure 2-3 to Figure 2-5 the crossline dip is displayed for the algorithms mentio

In order to avoid getting a noisy steering cube the calculation cube-size of the FFT algorithms has to be at leas

14、t 5 or 7. The latter is the default setting. The BG algorithm has a different behaviour: a cube size of 3 seems to be sufficient, but the raw steering cube is useless and a median filtering appears to be mandatory.2.4.4. Filtering of the steering cubesFigure 2-6 and Figure 2-7 show the results after

15、 applying a median filter with different step-outs to the steering cubes. It is apparent that no lateral filtering and only a small vertical filtering, gives the best result with the FFT algorithm.The BG steering needs to be filtered in the lateral and vertical direction. The best results were obtai

After filtering, the outputs of the precise steering with cube size 7 and median filtered with step-out of 2 only in the vertical direction (FFT7+ med002) and Fast BG steering median filtered with the step-outs 1 1 and3 (BG3 med113) are very similar in ac

Using a limit requires a priori knowledge and is in the end a choice of the interpreter.Figure 2-8. Filtering of FFT+ using calculation cube size?: median filter with step-ou

Choosing a steering algorithmDifferent Steering algorithms are available. The precise FFT algorithm yields an almost perfect SteeringCube at the costs of considerably lo

23、nger calculation times. The BG Fast Steering algorithm seems to fit 95% of the situations and is very fast. dGB recommends the use of this algorithm, using its default calculation cube size of 3 and additional median filtering 113. Although depending on the geology, data quality, available computati

24、on time and purpose other choices can be made. A number of examples are presented: For a dataset of good quality with only small and low variance in dips, the BG Fast Steeringmethod performs well enough. With a median filtering with step-out 113 applied the result is already very acceptable. For a p

25、oor quality dataset, one of the FFT algorithms should be used because the BG Fast Steeringalgorithm is sensitive to noise and will produce too much outliers. Minor vertical filtering might also help improve the results. For detailed studies at target level, the preciseFFT algorithm can be considered

26、 for a sub-volume within the area of interest. When creating chrono-stratigraphy, the Event Steeringis optimal because it looks for similar events (min, max) on neighboring traces in inline/crossline directions.It is always possible to go back and spend much more time in producing a SteeringCube using the FFT precise algorithm.
