Title: Seismic Record Section in Depth: ABSTRACT

Author(s): James M. Hornsby

Article Type: Meeting abstract

Abstract:

Automatic Previous HitvelocityNext Hit-determination methods developed in recent years make it possible for the geophysicist to convert seismic information from time coordinates to depth coordinates. In making this conversion it is feasible to account for almost any horizontal Previous HitvelocityTop gradient and, under favorable conditions, to migrate the data and still have the results in the form of a record section. Although these procedures offer possibilities for saving labor and for improving interpretational insight, they should be used with the understanding that interpretation is involved and the results should be reviewed as new data are added.
