Abstract

Methods and systems, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium can be used to preserve edges while performing Gaussian grid smoothing of noise components in subsurface grids to generate geological maps. A subsurface grid is generated from data indicating properties of subsurface formations. A weighting grid is generated by: i) receiving seismic data representing the subsurface formations; ii) generating seismic attributes associated with discontinuities in the subsurface formations; and iii) assigning a particular weight value to weighting grid points that the seismic attributes associated with discontinuities in the subsurface formations indicate the presence of a discontinuity. The subsurface grid is processed by iteratively computing local averages of grid points in the subsurface grid using a compact Gaussian filter weighted by values in the weighting grid. A geological map of subsurface formations is generated based on the filtered subsurface grid.
