Output format	ASCII
Other output format

Describe pre-processing software
Post-processing software needed?	Yes
Describe post-processing software	A 3D visualization software package.
Visualization software needed?	Yes
If above answer is yes

Describe processes represented by the model	Process: carbonate productivity and deposition winnowing reef development carbonate depositional facies Model determines these through five deterministic and fuzzy steps: data input data fuzzification fuzzy rule analysis aggregation of results defuzzification
Describe key physical parameters and equations	See above
Describe length scale and resolution constraints	Model does not place any spatial constraints.
Describe time scale and resolution constraints	Temporal scale and resolution determined by user. Model adjusts process and output to the temporal increment chosen by user.
Describe any numerical limitations and issues	Some of the fuzzy logic methods do not produce unique results as there are a variety of method choices that best 'match' test data. For example, the user can choose a variety of aggregation methods to calculate final carbonate facies and productivity values.
