Abstract: Methods, computing systems, and computer-readable media for centrally collecting and tracking incorporation of model update inputs for developing and updating a model, of which one method includes receiving the model update inputs via a centralized system, sending a notification to one or more contributors associated with the model notifying that the model update inputs have been received, receiving information identifying progress of incorporation of the update inputs into the model, generating transaction records identifying the progress and actions taken to incorporate the update inputs into the model, and storing or outputting the transaction records.

Abstract: Methods, computing systems, and computer-readable media for aggregating a plurality of individual asset models of which the method includes storing information representing the plurality of individual asset models, generating a plurality of grouped asset models by aggregating the plurality of individual asset models based on a common property shared by the plurality of individual asset models, constructing a tree comprising a hierarchy of a plurality of levels and sub-levels associated with the plurality of grouped asset models and the plurality of individual asset models, and displaying the tree in a user interface.

Abstract: A method to parameterize the geometry of a geological, subsurface feature such as a salt body is provided. Data corresponding to a subsurface, geological formation is acquired. The acquired formation data corresponds to a subsurface body having a certain geometry and a subsurface region. At least part of the subsurface body geometry is directly inverted into an inversion domain. The direct inversion includes partitioning the inversion domain into a first partitioned region, corresponding at least in part to the subsurface body, and a second partitioned region. The inversion further uses a level set representation to parameterize the subsurface body geometry. A computing system that includes a processor, a memory, and one or more programs stored in the memory is also provided. The programs comprise instructions that, when executed by the processor, are configured to perform the provided method.
