Image data published in the AGU paper 'Estimation of Capillary Pressure in Unconventional Reservoirs Using Thermodynamic Analysis of Pore Images'. The British Geological Survey (BGS) provides images of unconventional shale rock pores captured using nano-CT and SEM imaging methods. Images are segmented into fluid and rock phases and stored as JPG files.
Use Cases
- Training computer vision models for pore segmentation based on the described RGB image data.
- Analyzing pore geometry and connectivity for reservoir characterization based on the nano-CT and SEM images.
- Validating thermodynamic models of capillary pressure using the segmented fluid and rock phase images.
- Benchmarking image processing algorithms for geological sample analysis.
Strengths
- Images are segmented into fluid and rock phases, providing a processed foundation for analysis.
- Data originates from the British Geological Survey (BGS), a recognized authoritative institution.
- Imaging methods (nano-CT and SEM) are specified, indicating high-resolution capture techniques.
Limitations
- Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
- Row count, file formats, and column-level documentation are absent.
- The dataset's specific size and licensing terms are unknown.
