Method for characterization of multi-scale Geometric attributes
First Claim
1. A method for calculating a multi-trace geometric attribute of a surface at multiple scales, the surface regularly gridded with grid points, comprising the steps of:
- selecting a window size;
selecting a set of the grid points defining grid cells of the selected window size;
calculating the geometric attribute using the traces at the set of the grid points;
repeating selecting and calculating steps for sets of the grid points defining grid cells of different window sizes; and
determining the window size whose calculations best represent the geometric attribute.

Abstract
A multi-trace geometric attribute of a regularly gridded surface is calculated at multiple scales, wherein, first, a window size is selected. Next, a set of the grid points is defined defining grid cells of the selected window size. Next, the geometric attribute is calculated using the traces at the set of the grid points. Next, the above selecting and calculating steps are repeated for sets of the grid points defining grid cells of different window sizes. Finally, the window size is determined whose calculations best represent the geometric attribute.
