QUALITY ASSURANCE OF SPATIAL SAMPLING FOR DMO

摘要

This invention provides a method for examining the geometry of the disposition of a plurality of sources (18-24) and receivers (10-16) over an area to be surveyed with a view to optimizing the array to avoid data shadow zones and to optimize the resulting seismic image. The method depends upon studying the statistical distribution of dip polarity in dip bins along selected CMP azimuths.
