Big Data-Driven 3D Visualization Analysis System for Promoting Regional-Scale Digital Geological Exploration
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: As geological exploration technology advances, geoscience relies on digitization and intelligence to address challenges such as data fragmentation, multi-source heterogeneity, and visual analysis. This study develops a big data-driven 3D visual analysis system for regional-scale applications. The system integrates three core technological components: (1) a heterogeneous cloud resource scheduling method employing an optimized CMMN algorithm with unified cloud API standardization to enhance task distribution efficiency; (2) a block model-based dynamic data aggregation approach utilizing semantic unification and attribute mapping for multi-source geological data integration; (3) a GPU-accelerated rendering framework implementing occlusion culling and batch processing to optimize 3D visualization performance. Experimental validation shows the improved CMMN algorithm reduces cloud task completion time by 2.37% while increasing resource utilization by 0.652% compared with conventional methods. The dynamic data model integrates 12 geological data types across eight categories through semantic mapping. Rendering optimizations achieve a 93.7% memory reduction and 60.6% faster visualization compared with baseline approaches. This system provides robust decision support and reliable tools for the digital transformation of geoscience work.
