Comparison of graphic log systems illustrating the difference in geological message between (a) use of basic symbols used with ‘artistic flexibility’ and (b) computer-generated log. Comparison of graphic log systems illustrating the difference in geological message between (a) use of basic symbols used with ‘artistic flexibility’ and (b) computer-generated log. After Stapledon (1986). While computer logging has come a long way since 1986, a degree of inflexibility remains in graphically illustrating important geological features. Mark J.
