A technique includes identifying a fracture polygon intersecting a voxel of a three--dimensional grid of voxels representing a region of interest of a hydrocarbon-bearing reservoir based on data indicative of a discrete fracture network. The technique includes partitioning the polygon with a regular mesh of points and determining a number of the mesh points inside the voxel and inside the polygon. The technique includes estimating an area of the fracture inside the voxel based at least in part on the determined number of mesh points inside the voxel and inside the polygon. The technique includes determining at least one property of a portion of the hydrocarbon-bearing reservoir, which coincides with the voxel based at least in part on the estimated area of the fracture.
