Zusammenfassung:A method for automatically evaluating a survey of a subterranean wellbore includes receiving downhole navigation sensor measurements and automatically evaluating surface sensor data obtained at substantially the same time as the navigation sensor measurements to determine whether or not the navigation sensor measurements were obtained during satisfactory wellbore survey conditions. The navigation sensor measurements are evaluated to determine whether or not they meet certain predetermined conditions necessary for obtaining a satisfactory survey. A survey recommendation is automatically generating based on the automatic evaluations performed.
