Abstract
Systems and methods for interpreting multi-Z horizons from seismic data are disclosed. Seismic data is displayed via a graphical user interface (GUI) of an application executable at a user's computing device. User input is received via the GUI for picking surfaces of a multi-Z horizon within a current view of the displayed data. The user's input is tracked as it is received via the GUI over a series of input points within the current view of the displayed seismic data. Based on the tracking, each of a plurality of surfaces for the multi-Z horizon and at least one edge point between the picked surfaces within the current view of the seismic data are determined. The current view of the seismic data within the GUI is dynamically updated to include a visual indication of the plurality of surfaces and the at least one edge point for the multi-Z horizon.
