Multi-z horizon interpretation and visualization from seismic data

A system comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a memory coupled to the processor and storing processor-readable instructions, which, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform a plurality of functions, including functions to:
• display seismic data within a graphical user interface (GUI) of an application executable at a computing device of a user;
• receive, via the GUI, input from the user for picking a plurality of surfaces of a multi-Z horizon being interpreted within a current view of the displayed seismic data;
• track the user's input as it is received via the GUI over a series of input points within the current view of the displayed seismic data;
• determine each of the plurality of surfaces picked by the user for the multi-Z horizon and at least one edge point between the picked surfaces within the current view of the seismic data, based on the tracking;
• and
• update the current view of the seismic data within the GUI to include a visual indication of the plurality of surfaces and the at least one edge point for the multi-Z horizon.

A computer-readable storage medium having computer-readable instructions stored therein, which when executed by a computer cause the computer to perform a plurality of functions, including functions to:

• display seismic data within a graphical user interface (GUI) of an application executable at a computing device of a user;
• receive, via the GUI, input from the user for picking a plurality of surfaces of a multi-Z horizon being interpreted within a current view of the displayed seismic data;
• track the user's input as it is received via the GUI over a series of input points within the current view of the displayed seismic data;
• determine each of the plurality of surfaces picked by the user for the multi-Z horizon and at least one edge point between the picked surfaces within the current view of the seismic data, based on the tracking;
• and
• update the current view of the seismic data within the GUI to include a visual indication of the plurality of surfaces and the at least one edge point for the multi-Z horizon.
