MapSnapper 3D Process Digital topographic and aerial photos or satellite images are purchased Geologic structure maps are ortho-registered and digitized A model is built and velocities are assigned from sonic logs; north-south cross section A model is built and velocities are assigned from sonic logs; east-west cross section The 3D model is built stacking sequential layers The 3D model is built stacking sequential layers The 3D model is built stacking sequential layers The 3D model is built stacking sequential layers The 3D model is built stacking sequential layers The 3D model is built stacking sequential layers The 3D model is built stacking sequential layers Hazards are encoded into the database Field scouting adds hazards and operations difficulties to the database The 3D design is built using diagnostics from the model Permit information is included in the database Access for equipment is evaluated Sources and receivers offsets are planned A final shooting plan is developed for ray tracing Coverage is evaluated Offset contribution is evaluated Azimuth contribution is evaluated Model is ray traced to evaluate image quality Model is ray traced to evaluate image quality Model is ray traced to evaluate image quality
