KAPPA-Viz can handle objects of any size and
format from any source. KAPPA objects, such as
numerical models from Rubis, Topaze and Saphir,
or production logs from Emeraude are imported by
a single drag-drop either locally from Ecrin or from
KAPPA Server. Third party objects, such as seismic
blocks, geomodels, simulations and logs are handled
by a series of plug-ins. The massive processing is
handled on the KAPPA-Viz server, the manipulation
and visualization is handled ‘light and local’.
When a new object is imported, whatever the size,
KAPPA-Viz will create a low-resolution 3D rendering. In
the hands of the user this allows smooth manipulation
of the actual massive object. It is simplified as much
as possible, but no further. There is just sufficient
information to manipulate the object in 3D, although
many orders of magnitude more data are held in store
that is equally accessible and useable. When the
manipulation ceases the full high resolution image is
populated by the server and immediately presented
to the user.
Users, wherever they are, enter virtual rooms where
they can share, overlay, manipulate and animate any
object or objects describing the reservoir in real time
on iPad or PC. When the object is a KAPPA analysis a
handle appears on the relevant well(s) that opens the
corresponding analysis on a click or touch.
KAPPA-Viz is the virtual visual meeting place for any 3D object generated by
KAPPA or any third party application. This Client-Server solution offers virtual
rooms where Giga or Terrabyte objects can be shared between PC and iPad
users over an intranet or very narrow internet bandwidths.
