From Maps to Models - Tutorials for structural geological modeling using GemPy and GemGIS

Abstract

The geological map-to-model tutorials presented enable users of the GemPy and GemGIS Python libraries and associated packages to create structural geological models from scratch using input data for conceptual models but also more sophisticated models representing possible real-world examples. Textbook geological maps and cross sections (e.g., Bennison, 1990;Powell, 1995) are transformed into structural models serving as teaching materials for undergraduate students in the field of Applied Geosciences at
