Interactiv IP for Oasis montaj.
Due to customer demand, Interpex has customized and adapted the Zonge
2D Smooth Inversion algorithm (as used in the Resix IP2DI v4 program) to
work seamlessly with the Interactiv™ IP System. The Zonge algorithm uses
a two-dimensional finite element method, which incorporates topography in
the inversion of resistivity (and IP) data.
The integration allows the user to perform all data import, conversion and
QC in the Interactiv™ IP System and then perform inversions of the IP
directly from within Montaj. The Zonge 2D Smooth Inversion algorithm is
launched from within OASIS montaj. A custom GX guides the user through
the inversion settings. Results are written back into the OASIS montaj
database.
These results are then available to the user for analysis and interpretations.
The standard pseudosection plotting and presentation functions supplied
with the Interactiv IP system are used to display the data.
This algorithm uses a two-dimensional finite element method which
incorporates topography in modeling resistivity (and IP) data. This is
accomplished by first constructing a rectangular finite element mesh in the
normal fashion (based on depth), and then deforming it so the surface
nodes match the supplied topography profile.
Nodes at depth are adjusted to a lesser degree than the surface nodes as
the depth increases. Otherwise, the method used is the same as the
standard method of Rijo. In the special case where the topography is flat, it
produces equations which are the same as those used by Rijo (1977) and
Wannamaker (1992).
