Acknowledgements

This work was funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft, project Be 1041/9. Midland Valley Exploration Ltd provided excellent support for their software program 3D-Move. We thank Ralph Elsässer, Mira Persaud, Stefan Preiss, Sigmar Stiasny and Björn Zehner for their assistance and competence with three-dimensional data. Herr Graf (Freiburg) produce some of the photographic plates.
The computer specialists at GFZ-Potsdam, especially Wilfred Herr, and  Christoph Lindenbeck at Freiburg University, were instrumental in allowing this modelling project to run smoothly in a UNIX environment.

The following sources of data were used for this project:

a) Topographic maps of Germany, 1:25 000
 
6037 Ebnath 6239 Neustadt an der Waldnaab
6038 Waldershof 6240 Flossenbürg
6039 Mitterteich 6337 Kaltenbrunn
6040 Neualbenreuth 6338 Weiden in den Oberpfalz
6137 Kemnath 6339 Waldthurn
6138 Erbendorf 6340/6341 Vohenstrauß/Frankenreuth
6139 Falkenberg 6437 Hirschau
6140 Tirschenreuth 6438 Schnaittenbach
6237 Grafenwöhr 6439 Täannesberg
6238 Parkstein 6440 Moosbach

b) The KTB database. It contains complete databases of KTB data.

c) Geological maps
1:200 000 map of Bayern, CC6334 Bayreuth
1:10 000 maps (10 maps) of the KTB area (Stettner 1990)
1:50 000 map of the KTB area (Stettner 1990)
1:25 000 maps of Bayern; 6137 Kemnath, 6237 Grafenwöhr, 6337 Kaltenbrunn, 6340/6341 Vohenstrauß/Frankenreuth, 6437 Hirschau, 6440 Moosbach.

d) Tectonic map
scale 1:1 000 000, as enclosure in handbook to the 1:500 000 Map of Bayern (Bayerische Geologisches Landesamt 1981).

e) ISO '89 seismic data
Reproduced with permission from the Geophysical Department, GeoForschungsZentrum Potsdam. Data were migrated, time sections, down to 8 TWT sec. Sections arranged in crosslines and inlines, together with time-sections.

f) Co-ordinate conversion
To transfer data from maps and other sources into the model, it was necessary to sometimes convert map co-ordinates. This was done on Heiko Jacobs' internet page based at the University of Karlsruhe.
