Abstract

Methods, computer-readable media, and systems are disclosed for applying 1D processing in a non-1D formation. In some embodiments, a 3D model or curtain section of a subsurface earth formation may be obtained. A processing window within the 3D model or curtain that is suitable for 1D inversion processing is determined, and a local 1D model for the processing window is built. A 1D inversion is performed on the local 1D model, and inverted formation parameters are used to update the 3D model or curtain section.
