ABSTRACT:
The method employs standard processing techniques in order to derive and maintain raw data as well as background corrected and shop calibrated data. Specific data from standard processing is used for the Enhanced Vertical Resolution (EVR) processing. The method uses corrected and calibrated data from standard processing. This data is filtered using improved standard processing material matching filters. Density correction factors .DELTA..rho..sub.LONG (or equivalently .DELTA..rho..sub.SHORT) is calculated for the long and short detectors and used in further processing. .DELTA..rho..sub.LONG and .DELTA..rho..sub.SHORT are used to calculate the standard calibrated compensated density .rho.. Enhanced processing begins with the iterative deconvolution and filtering (or smoothing) of .DELTA..rho..sub.SHORT. The background corrected and shop calibrated short density data, calculated during standard processing, is materially matched using an improved EVR filter. Finally, an enhanced calibrated borehole compensated density .rho..sub.B is calculated. The use of the same processing methods and a strict enforcement of material matching, both for the standard and enhanced processing, insures that neither short nor long detector count rates are overemphasized and that shop calibrations and borehole compensation are accurately maintained.
