Abstract
A method, apparatus, and program product render a seismic slice in real time and in a computationally-efficient manner using a displacement mapping technique implemented in one or more programmable shaders of a graphics processing unit (GPU), e.g., using programmable shaders in a GPU to perform both tessellation and displacement of primitives in connection with rendering a displacement-mapped visualization of the seismic slice for display in an interactive 3D visualization environment.
