Abstract: System and method for estimating a spatial distribution of a characteristic associated with Earth resources. The method includes receiving at an interface palaeogeography data including (1) palaeotopography data, (2) palaeobathymetry data, (3) and a palaeo-earth systems model; calculating with a processor, a retrodictive model of the characteristic based on the (1) palaeotopography data, (2) the palaeobathymetry data, and (3) the palaeo-earth systems model; and imaging the spatial distribution of the characteristic over a part of the Earth.
