Deconvolution negates these effects to an extent and thus increases the resolution of the seismic data. Seismic data, or a seismogram, may be considered as a convolution of the source wavelet, the reflectivity and noise. [5] Its deconvolution is usually implemented as a convolution with an inverse filter.
Deconvolution maps to division in the Fourier co-domain. This allows deconvolution to be easily applied with experimental data that are subject to a Fourier transform. An example is NMR spectroscopy where the data are recorded in the time domain, but analyzed in the frequency domain. Division of the time-domain data by an exponential function ...
For land acquisition, different types of sources may be used depending on the acquisition settings. Explosive sources such as dynamite are the preferred seismic sources in rough terrains, in areas with high topographic variability or in environmentally sensitive areas e.g. marshes, farming fields, mountainous regions etc. [4] Such type of sources needs to be buried (coupled) into the ground in ...
There are three main processes in seismic data processing: deconvolution, common-midpoint (CMP) stacking and migration. [44] Deconvolution is a process that tries to extract the reflectivity series of the Earth, under the assumption that a seismic trace is just the reflectivity series of the Earth convolved with distorting filters. [45]
This data alone can be useful in obtaining information about a specific location. [6] But when receiver function data from one seismic station is combined with data from many other stations, it is possible to build a detailed map of the Moho depth and of seismic velocity across a large geographic area.
Semblance analysis is a process used in the refinement and study of seismic data. The use of this technique along with other methods makes it possible to greatly increase the resolution of the data despite the presence of background noise. The new data received following the semblance analysis is usually easier to interpret when trying to ...
SEG-Y Files are stored in a hierarchical byte-stream format that combines both textual and binary data segments. The following chart shows the byte stream structure of revision 1 (2002), [5] with revision 2 (2017) only adding an optional data trailer for 1 or more 3200-byte records at the end: [6] [7]
A form of migration is one of the standard data processing techniques for reflection-based geophysical methods (seismic reflection and ground-penetrating radar) The need for migration has been understood since the beginnings of seismic exploration and the very first seismic reflection data from 1921 were migrated.
