Landmark Graphics Visualization Facility

Memorial University of Newfoundland, St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador
What the facility does

Creates 3D representations of geophysical surveys and other data, primarily related to oil and gas exploration and the geophysics field, seabed mapping and data analysis

Areas of expertise

Landmark Graphics Visualization Facility is a large-screen 3D imaging facility that uses the Landmark software suite, which allows researchers to create 3D representation of data, from geophysical surveys to models of molecules. University, government and private-sector R&D companies can use the facility or collaborate with Memorial researchers. The facility’s primary clients are the oil and gas exploration and production industry.
