Fault Lineament Analysis Program

 

Abstract:
 

 

The Fault Lineament Analysis Program was originally written in Fortran and then VBA for ArcGIS, and now for ArcGIS Pro. It works with line and point data. A region can be divided into subcells and rose diagram plots (frequency/length weighted) are produced for each cell. A number of raster grids can also be interpolated including relative entropy, group mean dominance etc. The output can also be saved to polygon, and the grids can be used for input to Machine Learning algorithms.

Mike Cunningham
Principal Consultant, Geology

Mike has over 15 years’ experience as a geologist. He completed a PhD in post-Variscan tectonics (Ireland) and later completed two years of postdoctoral research into evaluating and modelling active oceanic slope processes. Mike has also worked in both Irish and British civil services where he was involved in shallow seabed mapping, GIS and software development. Mike’s experience with SRK includes projects in Australia and overseas (Indonesia, Lao, Sri Lanka, Kyrgyzstan, Mongolia, Tanzania, Congo, Liberia and Malaysia), and on a variety of commodities including graphite, gold, uranium, iron and potash. He has conducted 3D modelling of vein, epithermal and banded iron formation styles of mineralisation, and Mineral Resource and exploration target estimates in accordance with JORC Code (2012) reporting guidelines. Mike has also completed numerous Independent Geologist’s Reports, due diligence, valuation studies, and is a well-accomplished project manager.
