DK 22C: X-Ray Computed Tomography Data for an Igneous Rock Core Sample

X-ray computed tomography data provides a non-destructive 3D view of an igneous rock core sample named DK 22C. Scott Eckley authored this dataset, which was last updated on March 18, 2024. The data is hosted by the Texas Data Repository via the Dataverse platform.

Use Cases

• Analyze rock porosity and fracture networks based on the 3D X-ray CT imagery.
• Segment and classify mineral phases within the igneous rock sample based on density contrasts.
• Train machine learning models for automated rock core analysis based on the volumetric image data.
• Validate numerical simulations of fluid flow or mechanical properties based on the internal rock structure.

Strengths

• Data was last updated on 2024-03-18, indicating recent availability.
• The dataset focuses on a specific igneous rock core sample (DK 22C), providing a concrete subject.
• X-ray computed tomography is a non-destructive method for capturing internal 3D structure.

Limitations

• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count and file size are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
