MK 93D: X-Ray CT Data for an Igneous Rock Core Sample

X-ray computed tomography data captures the internal structure of an igneous rock core sample designated MK 93D. The dataset was contributed by author Scott Eckley and hosted by the Texas Data Repository Harvested Dataverse. It was last updated on March 18, 2024.

Use Cases

• Segment rock components and pores based on X-ray CT density data.
• Train computer vision models for automated geological feature detection.
• Analyze 3D rock fabric and texture for petrological studies.
• Validate digital rock physics models against physical core sample scans.

Strengths

• Data is specifically from X-ray computed tomography, a high-resolution 3D imaging technique.
• Dataset is associated with a specific, identifiable rock sample (MK 93D).
• Last update timestamp (2024-03-18) is provided, indicating recent platform activity.

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.
