Geological structures are three dimensional, yet are typically represented by, and - terpreted from, outcrop maps and structure contour maps, both of which are curved two-dimensional surfaces. Maps plus serial sections, called 2½-D, provide a closer approach to three dimensionality. Computer technology now makes it possible for geological interpretations to be developed from the beginning in a fully three dim- sional environment. Fully 3-D geological models allow significantly better interpre- tions and interpretations that are much easier to share with other geologists and with the general public. This book provides an overview of techniques for constructing structural interpretations in 2-D, ... Read more

Reviews for 3-D Structural Geology: A Practical Guide to Quantitative Surface and Subsurface Map Interpretation
From the reviews of the second edition: "In the second edition, material has been reorganized to follow more closely the typical workflowof the exploration geologist. … The book has its place on the shelves of exploration geologists and some structural geology researchers. … this is a useful and well produced book." (Nigel Woodcock, Geological Magazine, Vol. 144 (2), ... Read more
