Release 0.6.0 (2021-11-08)

(Major Release)

New Application - Direct current and induced polarization 3D inversion

The application provides an interface to the open-source SimPEG package for 3D inversion of direct current (DC) and induced polarization (IP) data.

• Direct current data (V/A) inversion for the recovery of conductivity (S/m).

• Apparent chargeability data (V/V) for the recovery of chargeability (SI).

All inversions are performed on a 3D octree mesh.

Application Updates

• All 3D inversions have been updated to SimPEG v0.15.1.

  • The transition also includes several updates to parallelization allowing computations on distributed systems.

• Magnetic and gravity inversions now relies on the ui.json input file format.

  • Inversion parameters can be re-imported from existing ui.json files.

  • Alternatively, the ui.json can be loaded in Geoscience ANALYST as a custom UI.

• Magnetic vector inversions can now be run with starting and reference models consisting of amplitude, inclination, and declination components.

• Inversion apps now include a detrending option to remove an nth order polynomial using either all the data or just the perimeter points.

• Octree Mesh Creation and Peak Finder applications also now rely on the ui.json format.

• Added unit tests

• Bug fixes

• This release will be accompanied by a Geoscience ANALYST release (v3.4) that exposes geoapps applications to Pro Geophysics users via dropdown menu. Follow the release link (Geoscience ANALYST v3.4) to learn more and find out what else is included.
