Abstract
It is necessary to embeded the collision detection algorithm into 3D gravity & magnetic interactive interpretation platform because overlap of the geological bodies lead to repeated forward computation which will result in wrong interpretation of the data. In this paper, we applied the collision detection algorithm into the field of geology exploration initially to solve the problem of 3D geological shapes' overlap. We presented a new algorithm GSCDA (group selection collision detection algorithm) which can minimize the number of geogical bodies that to be computed and satisfy the requirement of real-time. Then, intersection algorithm for regular and arbitrary complex geological models are described. GSCDA is realized in my 3D gravity & magnetic interpretation system using VC++ and OpenGL. The algorithm also have referenced meaning to geological bodies' intersection in 3D geological modeling field. After 1990's annual USA SEG meeting, visualization technology is paid highly attention in physical geography. Many 3D visual gravity & magnetic anomalies interpretation software is developed. Such as: ModelVision Pro is a gravity and magnetic inversion tool developed by Australian Encom Technology company. It simulates 3D geological body with a series of vertical or horizontal polygon prism, sphere, ellipsoid, vertical or horizontal cylinder and elliptical cylinder. GM-SYS is 3D gravity and magnetic modeling software for surface oriented models, developed as an extension for Oasis montaj. The extension allows geoscientists to model complicated 3 dimensional subsurface structures of any size or scale. it requires MagMap, utilizes frequency-domain calculations based on Parker's algorithm ( 18 )
