Faults can often act as discontinuities in contour maps. The area on each side of a fault needs to be gridded and contoured separately. In GaeaSynergy this is accomplished by first drawing the faults and then assigning fault blocks. The fault blocks are bordered by the grid boundaries or other faults. Each fault block is gridded and contoured separately.
