Abstract
Geological structure is the dominating factor affecting the temperature field in shallow crust. In this paper, detailed analysis about the geological structure in the urban area of Tianjin was carried out, and the influences of geological structure on the temperature field and the formation of geothermal water were also discussed, by means of 3D visualization technology. The 3D visualization technology will become a strong tool for analyzing the sightless geological structure, and provide a wider prospect for 3D modeling of geological structure. The analysis shows that the geological structure has great influence on the occurrence of geothermal resources. And it is important and necessary to analyze the geological structure when studying geothermal.
