Presentation Details
Directional surveys for wells are typically received with data points represented as angles (inclination, azimuth) and depths. This data needs to be converted to Cartesian coordinates for mapping or 3D visualization. This presentation demonstrates the use of FME to replicate the formula from the "Minimum-Curvature Method" to convert well surveys for mapping purposes.
