Generating a synthetic model

[Esh15]

Hi, how do I generate a synthetic model? I noticed that fatiando is not recognised on python 3.

Hi @Esh15! Thanks for opening this issue.

You're right, the old fatiando Python 2.7 package has been deprecated. We have moved to a new set of tools instead, like Harmonica.

In Harmonica we have functions to forward model the gravity fields of point sources, prisms and tesseroids. You build your synthetic model using these geometries and using these functions to compute their fields. Is this your goal?

You can checkout our User Guide for detailed description of how to run Forward Models using Harmonica.

I'm converting this Issue into a Discussion inside our forum. @Esh15 you should be able to comment on this after the move. If you experience any problem, please let us know.

Thank you, I am trying to do a forward modelling on a magnetic data. Can harmonica do this?

[santisoler]

Sadly not at the moment. We have just made an early release of Choclo that will allow us to forward model magnetic fields within Harmonica.

For the moment you could use the forward modelling capabilities of SimPEG: https://docs.simpeg.xyz/

Thank you for your time. This was helpful
