Systems and methods are disclosed for identifying subsurface features as a function of position in a subsurface volume of interest. Exemplary implementations may include obtaining target subsurface data; obtaining a conditioned subsurface feature model; applying the conditioned subsurface feature model to the target subsurface data, which may include generating convoluted target subsurface data by convoluting the target subsurface data; generating target subsurface feature map layers by applying filters to the convoluted target subsurface data; detecting potential target subsurface features in the target subsurface feature map layers; masking the target subsurface features; and estimating target subsurface feature data by linking the masked subsurface features to the target subsurface feature data.
