1 Introduction to seismic data and processingChapter seismic data and their acquisition, processing , and Sampled time series, sampling rate, and seismic amplitude and gain Phase and Hilbert Data format and quality control (QC) SummaryFurther readingThe discipline of subsurface seismic imaging, or mapping the subsurface using seismicwaves, takes a remote sensing approach to probe the Earth s interior. It measuresground motion along the surface and in wellbores, then puts the recorded data througha series of data processing steps to produce seismic images of the Earth s interior interms of variations in seismic velocity and density. The ground movements recorded byseismic sensors (such as geophones and seismometers onshore, or hydrophones andocean bottom seismometers offshore) contain information on the media s response tothe seismic wave energy that traverses them.
the shot. This spread is the case for most offshore seismic surveys using airgun or other controlled sources near the boat and one or more streamers of hydrophones as receivers. In comparison with onshore seismic data, offshore seismic data usually have much higher quality because of a number of favorable conditions offshore, including ...
