Model analysis methods (examples taken from Model A1). a Time-lapse map view imagery, showing the stepwise reduction of the model length due to repeated sectioning. b Topography analysis over time. c Example of digital image correlation (DIC) analysis (incremental displacement along the y-axis [Vy]) and selection of area of interest for detailed analysis). d Examples of vertical cross-sections (locations shown in [a]). Offsets in marker horizon as well as linear colour differences are used to identify (incipient) faults. (*) Note that no vertical distortion is applied when showing vertical cross-sections, so that their horizontal and vertical scaling is identical
