GeoSec 2D

GeoSec 2D is an interactive system for the construction, restoration, and balancing (validation) of geologic cross sections. GeoSec 2D integrates a wide variety of data constaints with tools for depth conversion, fault prediction, analytical fault/fold/sedimentation forward modeling, and interactive restoration with decompaction and isostatic adjustment. These constuction techniques are applicable to contractional, extentional, strike-slip, and salt deformation regions, and include vertical/oblique slip, flexural slip, slip line, and length/area conserving kinematic models. Although functionally sophisticated, GeoSec 2D is designed for use by non-structural geologists, geophysicists, and mining/reservoir engineers, as well as structural experts.
