A method includes imaging, at an imaging resolution, a core of a subsurface formation to create a core image and iteratively performing the following operations until a defined feature of a rock of the subsurface formation exceeds a viewable image feature threshold: extracting a number of subsamples from the core for a first iteration and from each of the number of subsamples previously extracted for a subsequent iteration; increasing the imaging resolution; and imaging each subsample. The method includes performing the following operations for the subsamples last extracted: determining at least one formation property characteristic; determining a guiding rock property for each voxel of the core image and the number of subsample images; and determining a subsample that is a shortest distance to the voxel based on the number of guiding rock properties; and mapping, for each voxel, the at least one formation property characteristic that is the shortest distance.

Upscaling of formation petrophysical characteristics to a whole core scale

A method for determining fabric and upscaled properties of a geological sample, such as a rock sample. A system for the method also is provided.
