Foundation of Structural Geology
An isopachyte is a line joining points of equal stratigraphic thickness of a
formation or group of strata. An isopachyte map is contoured to indicate the three-
dimensional shape of a unit of variable thickness. The technique is used, for
example, ...

Results are usually presented as an isopachyte chart. This is a contoured
drawing showing thickness above the chosen reflector. The isopachyte may be
used to draw profiles of the strata along chosen lines (see Figures 34.26 and
34.27).

CONSTRUCTION AND APPLICATION OF ISOPACHYTES Isopachyte mapping
may be defined as the determination of lines or contours indicating the thickness
of strata between two specific horizons, such as two working seams. In problems

Basin evolution is illustrated as a series of structural contour maps, isopachyte
maps and cross-sections based upon data from more than 80 boreholes. The
maps illustrate the basinal geometry for individual rock units and thus
complement ...
