geometry definition - Shot spacing was calculated and loaded into a
database together with channel offsets.
resample - GI gun data were desampled to a 1 millisecond sample
rate. Minisparker data were desampled to a 0.5 millisecond sample rate.
shot edit - Noisy shots or channels within shots were omitted. System
crashes and shutdowns were cleaned up by blanking "no data" traces and inserting blank
shots as appropriate.
CMP sort - Data were sorted from shot gathers into common-mid-point (CMP) gathers.
velocity picking - Stacking velocities were analysed and assigned interactively
using semblance displays and constant velocity stacking panels.
bandpass filter - Hanning bandpass filter - GI gun: (12-24-400-450),
minisparker: (18-36-800-1000).
deconvolution - Full trace, operator length 20 samples, gap length 56
milliseconds, white noise 10%.
dip filter - Coherency energy rejection, filter length 101 samples, width 11
traces, dip 1.5 milliseconds per trace.
normal moveout - Using stacking velocities.
stack - 5 to 22 fold depending on shot rate.
migration - Finite difference time migration at 85% of stacking velocity.
display - Waterbottom mute and a 500 millisecond AGC was applied. Image
files are positive-only, variable-density profiles. Vertical scale is in milliseconds two-way travel
time, horizontal scale bar is provided at bottom of each section. Shotpoints and line crossings
are annotated along the horizontal axis.
