Research on the Algorithm of Extracting Ridgeand Valley Lines from Contour Data

In this paper, the authors put forward a brief and practical arithmetic for auto extracting terrain lines from digital terrain data after analyzing and comparing current arithmetics.This paper gives an experiment result that the ridge and valley extracted by the arithmetic is consistent with the experimental terrain.

Seismic Data Acquisition Techniques on Loess Hills in the Ordos Basin

High-resolution exploration for lithologic targets confronted with difficulties due to the original brought out from geophysical and geologic characteristics of the loess hills and the very thick deserts in Ordos. Scientific research since mid 1990s has conducted three acquisition techniques including the high-resolution crooked line survey in valleys, high-resolution multiple straight line survey and 3D survey, under different surface conditions and for different geological targets.
