Zusammenfassung:This invention relates to a new method of providing improved colour graphic displays of geophysical and other scientific and industrial data. Seismic sections, well bore logs, topographic contours, medical data, etc. may be conveniently and advantageously displayed in colour using this method. The data is received in digital form from a tape recorder or some other type of storage device and plotted on film transparencies. The film transparencies are then developed to form positive images. Polymer coatings are then sequentially deposited for each of the data sequences. A sheet of photopolymer laminate is placed on a display backing. A polymer coating is then deposited onto the display backing by exposing it to ultraviolet light through one of the positive images in a printer. A colour toner is then applied to each of the deposited polymer coatings. The colour graphic display thus formed is better adapted than known displays for interpretation by analysts.
