    OFR 07-04, Three-Dimensional Geologic Mapping for Groundwater Applications: Workshop extended abstracts, Denver, Colorado, Annual Meeting Geological Society of America
    (University of Minnesota, 2007) Thorleifson, L.Harvey; Berg, Richard C.; Russell, Hazen
    This fifth workshop, discussing three-dimensional (3D) geological mapping for groundwater applications, is part of an ongoing series that began in 2001. A focus of all the workshops has been the development of techniques to optimize internal consistency and to fully integrate 3-D stratigraphic with hydrostratigraphic models that can be used directly for hydrogeologic modeling. Workshops have emphasized the need for high-quality data, the procedures for reconciling often disparate and plentiful archival data, and the obvious realization that the better the geological model, the greater the probability that subsequently derived groundwater flow models will be as accurate as possible.

    OFR13-02, Three-Dimensional Geological Mapping
    (2013) Thorleifson, Harvey; Berg, Dick; Russell, Hazen
    This workshop is designed for those constructing 3D geological maps and numerical models. Our objective is to bring together people dealing with large datasets, and who must integrate variable quality data with high quality data to construct 3D geological models for application such as hydrogeology, engineering, and energy resource assessment. Topics include (1) methods of model construction, (2) managing diverse data of variable quality, (3) ensuring data interoperability, (4) visualization tools, and (5) interaction between mappers, hydrogeologists, energy and mineral resource geologists, engineering geologists, and engineers. The emphasis is on deposits that host potable groundwater, as well as sedimentary basins as a whole.
