OpendTect is a seismic interpretation system for visualizing, analyzing and interpreting 2D, 3D and 4D seismic data and Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) data.
The software provides tools for seismic interpretation and analysis within a graphical environment. It is also designed as an extensible platform, with a plugin interface allowing additional functionality to be developed without modifying the main source code.
This is free and open source software.
Key Features
- Visualize 2D, 3D and 4D seismic data.
- Interpret seismic and Ground Penetrating Radar data.
- Analyze seismic data using a range of processing and interpretation tools.
- Work with seismic attributes.
- Extend functionality through a plugin programming interface.
- Develop additional processing and interpretation workflows.
- Cross-platform support – runs on Linux, macOS and Windows.
