Abstract
The aim of this paper is to demonstrate several methods on how using modeling of different datasets in 3D can be used for better understanding of the sub-surface of volcanic geothermal systems. The paper shows examples of a variety of datasets and how they can be interpreted. Parameters that are discussed are for example, alteration, tectonic features, feed zones and alteration temperature. Examples are shown from various utilized geothermal systems in Iceland.
