Abstract

Methods, computing systems, and computer-readable media for modeling a subterranean volume, of which the methods include receiving data representing a geology of the subterranean volume, calculating a mesh for a digital model of the subterranean volume, generating the digital model using the mesh and the data, wherein generating the digital model comprises defining an implicit function for isostratigraphic surfaces of the subterranean volume. calculating values for a plurality of data points in the model using the implicit function, determining a discrepancy value for the individual data points, identifying a sample domain in the digital model, determining a refined implicit function for the sample domain, and modeling the subterranean volume using the refined implicit function for the sample domain and the implicit function for an area outside of the sample domain in the digital model.
