  • Determining a numerical age for geological events within a scheme
    Patent number: 11397278
    Abstract: Systems and methods for determining a numerical age for new geological events within a new scheme by ordering relations between geological events within a new scheme and/or within a new scheme and a preexisting scheme into a preferred hierarchy, dynamically excluding lower relations in the preferred hierarchy that conflict with higher relations due to irreconcilable ages of the relations, and using the ordered relations remaining in the preferred hierarchy to determine a numerical age for the new geological events within the new scheme.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 15, 2016
    Date of Patent: July 26, 2022
    Assignee: LANDMARK GRAPHICS CORPORATION
    Inventors: Nicholas Scott Tiedemann, Nicholas Alan Matthies, Rachel Bernadette Zaborski, Edward Patrick Ellwyn Collins, Richard James Martin, Loring Nicholas Harvey, Kieran Bowen
