Abstract

In coalfield seismic exploration study, the general interpretation is based on the observation and identification of the characteristics of seismic section. The space distribution of the fracture system can be well demonstrated by an advanced automatic tracking method, the ant tracking technique. Due to the limitations on the manual interpretation technique, it can only identify the fault and fracture that are evident. The automatic interpretation results obtained from the ant tracking technology, when compared with manual interpretation result, was more clearer, intuitive and accurate. It was considered that the technique has good application value in the interpretation of coalfield structures.
