Quantitative Clastics Laboratory

Animations

Numerous animations are produced by the QCL research group using the datasets under study. These products include three-dimensional Analog Training Modules that combine the 3D examination of seismic data in GeoProbe with the geospatial capabilities of GIS combined into a training product using Blaxxun software.

These ATM tools are designed as:

  • Interactive training modules for transfer of learnings to member scientists.
  • Web-based formats, able to run on any platform.
  • Relatively small size (30–60 MB)
  • Provided member companies on CD and incorporated into the Sand Box
  • Modular Design — enabling work on multiple modules simultaneously.
