Short summary
We developed G&M3D 1.0, a user-friendly software package that enables users to build, visualize, and analyze 3D models of subsurface geological structures. We tested the software using a Louisiana salt dome case study, demonstrating its practical value for geological interpretation. By providing both open-source code and a ready-to-use application, this work offers an accessible platform for education, research, and professional geophysical analysis.
