Abstract

Systems and methods for visualizing data from radially-oriented look-ahead sensors coupled to a drill bit are disclosed herein. A system comprises a processor, a memory, and a data analysis module. The data analysis module is operable to receive formation information from each of a plurality of formation sensors coupled to a downhole drilling system, the formation information being associated with one or more properties of a formation at a depth in front of the downhole drilling system, receive angular information from one or more orientation sensors coupled to the downhole drilling system, the angular information being associated with the formation information, compile sensor data based on the formation information and the angular information, and generate a visualization based on the sensor data.
