Abstract
Most of interpretational tasks in geophysics require an interdisciplinary knowledge and integration of information from comprehensive data bases. Towards this end a combination of different geophysical surveys employing seismics, gravity and magnetics, provides new insights into the structures and tectonic evolution of natural deposits together with geological and petrological studies. No doubt, any interdisciplinary approach is essential for numerical modelling of these structures and the processes acting on it. The interpretation of garvity and magnetics by 3D modelling requires data from other independent sources, due to the ambiguity of these methods.In close cooperation with geologists and computer scientists we are developing an object oriented model of the southern rim of the Northwest German Basin which consists of information from industry wells, stratigraphy and geophysical parameters (e.g. density and susceptibility). GOCAD is used for geometrical modelling purposes, IGMAS handels the interactive modifications of geophysical model parameters and geometry. Both modelling programs are supported by an object oriented data base system which will guarantee the consistency of data and models.Combined interpretations of the southern basin are presented and show, how the information from different geo-disciplines is visualized in order to ease the modelling process.
