Abstract
Surfaces may be smoothed within an earth model of a geological volume of interest. More specifically, smoothing may be done on a specific surface by smoothing or otherwise altering dip values without changing the position of the surface within the earth model. Dip values may determine certain behaviors of a surface such as reflection and refraction of seismic energy propagating within the earth model.
