POSIX

tool: OpendTect

Purpose: 

A software application for analysing and visualising multi-volume seismic data. OpendTect may be used to analyse 2D, 3D and 4D pre- and post-stack seismic data.

Features: 
  • Visualization and analysis of 2D and 3D seismic data in a single survey
  • 2D and 3D horizon tracking including auto-tracking, plane-by-plane, line and manual tracking
  • On-the-fly calculation and visualization of various attributes and filters
  • Plug-in architecture
A&H use case 1 description: 
The North Sea Palaeolandscapes project used OpendTect to produce a 3D seismic model of the British continental shelf. The model was used to visualise landscapes that may have been populated by humans in the late Quaternary and Holocene period, but which are now submersed underwater.
