Horizon tracker

Horizon tracking is possible in four modes:

- auto-tracking
- plane-by-plane tracking
- line tracking
- manual tracking

In auto-track mode the surface grows automatically. In plane-by-plane mode the tracked surface is extended by moving a tracking plane manually or semiautomatically in a user-driven direction. In line tracking mode the user makes an interpretation on inlines and crosslines. On the elements seeds are made and in between seeds an event is tracked. For these trackers two algorithms are presently supported:

- amplitudes only
- amplitudes steered by similarity

Furthermore, the manual tracker capability enable the user to pick horizons manually, which is a benefit in case of noisy seismic data or unconformities.

The tracking software supports various features for editing tracked surfaces. Areas can be removed from the surface and re-tracked after picking new seed points, or changing tracking parameters. Holes in the data can be filled automatically with an inverse distance interpolation algorithm.
