Patent ID: 8228758

Claim:
A method of creating an image in a wellbore comprising: receiving input data from a plurality of sensors positioned along a periphery of a wellbore at one or more measured depths, said input data including geometry of the wellbore, survey data, and trajectory of the wellbore; using a computer for: i) constructing a plurality of one dimensional arrays for a measured depth in each direction by: a) calculating maximum positive amplitudes from said input data from the plurality of sensors at the measured depth in one direction; and b) obtaining a sinusoidal line at the measured depth from the maximum positive amplitudes and assigning to the sinusoidal line a physical property; repeating a) and b) for each direction to obtain the plurality of one dimensional arrays for the measured depth in each direction; ii) repeating i) for each of the one or more measured depths to obtain a plurality of one dimensional arrays for each of the one or more measured depths; constructing an image from the multiple arrays using the computer; and outputting the image using the computer.
