Abstract

The main results obtained during the last 5–8 yr in the solution of forward and inverse problems of 3D induction studies are summarized. The up-to-date status of 3D modelling is presented and prospective improvements in the formulation and numerical solution of forward problems are discussed. Approximate techniques and practical aspects of 3D modelling are specially considered.

The general scheme of 3D interpretation of electromagnetic geophysical observations is outlined and realistic formalized approaches to solving 3D inverse problems, namely direct inversion and formalized model fitting, are studied.
