Abstract

In magnetic
interpretation, most existing edge detection filters have the disadvantages
that they require a reduction to the pole or pseudo-gravity transformation as a
pre-process of the magnetic data and beside this, the identified edges of deep
sources are generally diffuse and fuzzy, or cannot balance the edges of strong
and weak amplitude anomalies simultaneously. In order to overcome these
problems, we introduce a new filter, which can improve these disadvantages
effectively. The filter is based on the derivatives of the analytic signal
amplitude and the hyperbolic tangent function. The feasibility of the filter is
demonstrated on three cases of synthetic data caused by theoretical models in
variable depths and positions. The outcomes are compared with the results of
frequently used other edge detectors such as the analytical signal amplitude
and the tilt angle of the analytic signal amplitude. The results show that the
new filter can achieve better edge delineation.

POTANSİYEL ALAN VERİLERİNİN DEĞERLENDİRİLMESİNDE YENİ BİR YAPI SINIRI BELİRLEME YÖNTEMİ

Abstract

Manyetik verilerin değerlendirilmesinde kullanılan mevcut sınır
belirleme filtrelerinin birçoğu ön işlem olarak kutba indirgeme veya yalancı
gravite dönüşümü  gerektirmesi bir
dezavantaj oluşturmaktadır. Bunun yanısıra derin yapılara ilişkin elde edilen
yapı sınırları genel olarak dağınık ve bulanık olmakta veya derin ve sığ
yapılardan ileri gelen zayıf ve şiddetli anomalilerin genlik dengelemesi
yapılamadığından sığ ve derin kaynakların sınırları eşzamanlı olarak belirlenememektedir.
Bu çalışmada, sözkonusu bu dezavantajların üstesinden gelen yeni bir sınır
belirleme filtresi sunuyoruz. İşlevsel olarak bu filtre, analitik sinyal genlik
türevlerine ve hiperbolik tanjant fonksiyonuna dayanmaktadır. Yöntemin
etkinliği, değişken konum ve derinlikler ile temsil edilen model yapıların
oluşturduğu üç farklı sentetik anomali üzerinde gösterilmiştir. Elde edilen
sonuçlar, analitik sinyal genliği ve analitik sinyal genliği tilt açısı gibi
sık kullanılan diğer yapı sınır belirleme yöntemlerinin sonuçlarıyla da
karşılaştırılmıştır. Karşılaştırma sonuçlarına göre bu çalışma ile sunulan
filtrenin diğer filtrelere göre sınırların tespitinde daha etkin olduğu
gösterilmiştir.
