Abstract
Geophysical modelling, especially 3D inverse modelling, requires significant computational power due to the application of complex calculations to large datasets. To meet this need, parallelised codes running on a High-Performance Computing (HPC) are utilised to perform these geophysical modelling tasks. There are, however, often difficulties for scientists to access these codes and no consistency in approach to the preparation of input data to these codes. To reduce this complexity and lack of consistency access to parallel grid computing services via the internet, termed cloud computing, has been established for geophysical inverse modelling using the University of British Columbia, Geophysical Inversion Facility (UBC-GIF) codes GRAV3D and MAG3D. Portals and workflows have been developed to simplify the inversion modelling process and to allow more efficient access to inversion modelling tools. A mechanism which allows inversion modelling jobs to be submitted to cloud computing resources using a web browser (a geophysical portal) is being developed and tested at the National Computational Infrastructure (NCI) housed at the Australian National University (ANU). This work is the result of a collaborative project between Geoscience Australia, CSIRO and NCI.
