Detailed Task Tracking
Phase 1: Real Data Foundation
1A. NREL Brady Hot Springs Dataset
- Clone NREL/geothermal_osr repository
- Explore data format, understand scenario structure
- Retrain current CNN on Brady data
- Compare results against published USGS benchmark (<3.68% T error)
- Document gaps
1B. Utah FORGE Dataset
- Download FORGE well log data
- Download 3D geological model
- Map FORGE data structure to GeoForce input requirements
1C. Indonesian Field Parameters
- Compile parameter table from published papers
- Document permeability ranges for Indonesian volcanic systems
- Document fracture characteristics
- Build scenarios.yaml v2 with realistic Indonesian ranges
Phase 2: Real Simulator Setup
2A. Simulator Installation
- Request TOUGH3 license from LBNL
- Install Waiwera (backup, open-source)
- Install PyTOUGH
- Run TOUGH2 standard benchmark problems
2B. Simulation Campaign
- Write simulation campaign generator script
- Define 3D grid with vertical layering
- Run pilot batch (10 scenarios)
- Estimate total compute time
- Run full campaign (1,000+ scenarios)
Phase 3: Model Architecture Upgrade
- Implement 3D U-Net architecture
- Design input preprocessing for TOUGH3 outputs
- Design output denormalization pipeline
- Implement upgraded physics loss functions
