Abstract
Disclosed herein are system, apparatus, article of manufacture, method and/or computer program product embodiments, and/or combinations and sub-combinations thereof, for using direction-angles to identify geologic features and geologic attributes for use in geothermal, oil and gas, mining, and other applications. An example embodiment operates by receiving a discrete three-dimensional (3D) representation of a geologic volume comprising a set of 3D orientations, where each 3D orientation is represented as a set of direction-angles measured relative to a set of coordinate axes. The example embodiment further operates by receiving a set of other measurements of properties of the geologic volume. In response, the example embodiment operates by correlating the set of 3D orientations with the set of other measurements to generate a geologic correlation data structure. Subsequently, the example embodiment operates by identifying a geologic attribute or a geologic feature associated with the geologic volume based on the geologic correlation data structure.
