Method for continuous color mapping of seismic data
A method is described for producing continuous color displays of at least two separate sets of seismic data comprising the steps of: (A) creating a color coordinate system having at least two color axes, wherein each color axis of the color coordinate system has a unique spectrum of colors for both positive and negative values along each color axis and the colors assigned to positive values along each color axis are complementary to the colors assigned to negative values along each axis. (b) assigning unique colors to each component of the seismic data according to one of the color axes of the color coordinate system; and (c) forming continuous color displays of the seismic data by chromatic vector addition of the assigned colors.
