Abstract: A method for displaying a plurality of measurement data along a borehole trajectory includes displaying a borehole model representing the borehole trajectory; and displaying the plurality of measurement data as at least one layer overlaying the borehole model, wherein the plurality of measurement data are displayed at measurement depths corresponding to measurement depths of the borehole model.

Abstract: A method for navigating a 3D scene in a viewing area includes associating a point of interest with a reference shape, which is related to the shape of the 3D object, and displaying a scene according to a user-requested action, while keeping the point of interest within the reference shape and within the viewing area. The user-requested action may include translation, rotation, and zooming. The point of interest may include scene information such as a magnification factor, local orientation, and global orientation. The methods for performing a user-requested action in a 2D representation of a 3D object include determining a distance between a point of interest and a viewpoint; determining an amount of movement from a user input; and performing the user-requested action at a rate based on the amount of movement from the user input multiplied by a distance factor based on the distance between the point of interest and the viewpoint.

Abstract: Techniques for labeling a two-dimensional image of a multi-dimensional object include displaying the two-dimensional image of the multi-dimensional object. A plurality of label regions are calculated in the two-dimensional image, the plurality of label regions being substantially evenly spatially distributed along the two-dimensional image. A data value having a round number is determining within each of the label regions and a label point corresponding to the data value within each of the label regions is determined. The label point within each of the label regions in the two-dimensional image is displayed along with the data value adjacent the label point within each of the label regions in the two-dimensional image.
