Abstract

A method can include receiving spatially located geophysical data of a geologic region as acquired by one or more sensors; solving a system of equations for multi-dimensional implicit function values within a multi-dimensional space that represents the geologic region where the system of equations are subject to a smoothness constraint and subject to a weighted curvature minimization criterion at a plurality of spatially located points based on the spatially located geophysical data; and rendering to a display, a structural model of the geologic region based at least in part on the multi-dimensional implicit function values where the structural model characterizes stratigraphy of the geologic region.
