Abstract
The present disclosure provides an automated interpretation workflow for smooth surface wrapping of an imaged volume. The methods use a volume attribute to classify data into regions corresponding to feature/uncertain/non-feature parts and use smoothing through the uncertain parts to connect the clear boundaries of the feature. Any volume attribute can be used as long as feature/uncertain/non-feature categories can be identified in terms of continuous or discontinuous threshold values or ranges. The workflow can be combined with interpretation of well-defined boundary parts to resolve uncertainty and can be used with both explicit single-z and implicit multi-z (level set) boundary representations.
