How to create an isochron map.
Description:
MapView can geneate isochrons from xyz data or from grids.
Solution:
To generate isochrons from xyz data: 1.) Read in both horizons. 2.) XYZ operations > Combine. - Toggle XYZ operation to subtract. - Toggle Input points to List. - Key in a resultant surface name. - Toggle Yes if either horizon has fault traces you want to keep. - Exit. - Select shallowest xyz horizon. - Answer yes to the make current data question. - Select deepest xyz horizon. - Answer yes to the make current data question. (Selecting shallowest first generates positive values.) 3.) Select contour icon to display. To generate isochrons from grids: 1.) Grid both horizons. 2.) Grid operations > Combine. - Toggle Grid operation to subtract. - Toggle Input points to List. - Key in a resultant surface name. - Toggle fault, extent, and null handling as desired - Exit. - Select shallowest horizon. - Answer yes to the make current data question. - Select deepest horizon. - Answer yes to the make current data question. (Selecting shallowest first generates positive values.) 3.) Select contour icon to display.
