The AI helped me turn published datasets into depth meshes

He and the AI mapped published datasets and converted them into meshes for Moho depth, basin depth, and two sedimentary basin depths. The work pointed to a tight spot under the South Gate area of LA.

How it works

  1. Maps the published datasets with AI
  2. Converts them into meshes for Moho depth, basin depth, and two sedimentary basin depths
  3. Spots a tight point under the South Gate area of LA

Why it’s worth knowing

A chat tool helped do real mapping work on published data, and the meshes lined up on one tight spot under a named part of LA.
