GemPy 2

GemPy v2.0 release

It has been a long journey since the release of GemPy v1.0. What started as a small library to carry out research
on uncertainty analysis for structural geology has grown to be used in multiple projects around the world. Carried
by the community enthusiasm, we commenced a way-longer-than-planned rewritten of the code in order to
not only be able to fulfill the needs of many of you but also to set the foundations of a package driven by the
community. For this end, all the logic has been splat into multiple modules, classes and containers limiting
duplicities and exposing a large mutation api at different levels of abstraction. Hope the work has been worth it.

So long,

Miguel

What is new

• Full redesign of the back-end: much more modular, explicit and avoiding object duplicities to insane levels
• Topography
• Onlap, Erosion relations
• Choose your favourite type of fault: infinite faults, finite faults, faults offsetting faults, faults ending on series
• Masked marching cubes: this fix the ugly surfaces following the voxels faces
• All series are fully stored after interpolation
• Save your model
• Compile once, modify as much as you want
• Full integration with qgrid
• Real time computations via vtk or python-qgrid
• Adaptive regular grids for geophysics
• Refactored some legacy names:
  • formations renamed to surfaces
  • interfaces renamed to surfaces_points
• Minor changes:
  • New colormap and easy way to change the surfaces colors (even integration with widgets!)
  • The order of the formations will be given by the interpolation itself if the input was wrong
  • The split between reference and rest surface_points happens in theano. This makes the modification
    of reference points much easier
