Tau tomography with steering filters: 2-D field data example
نویسندگان
چکیده
Common reflection point (CRP) gathers are usually parameterized in terms of offset. For tomography, a more convenient parameterization is in terms of reflection angle. Reflection angle CRP gathers can be constructed using wave equation migration. By performing tomography in vertical travel-time (tau), focusing velocity, rather than some combination of focusing and mapping velocity, can be estimated. By using anisotropic preconditioning oriented along bedding planes, the solution can be guided towards a geologically reasonable model. The benefits of the tomography method are shown on a 2-D line from a 3-D marine dataset.

متن کاملSolution steering with space-variant filters
Most geophysical problem require some type of regularization. Unfortunately most regularization schemes produce “smeared” results that are often undesirable when applying other criteria (such as geologic feasibility). By forming regularization operators in terms of recursive steering filters, built from a priori information sources, we can efficiently guide the solution towards a more appealing...

متن کاملShort Note 3-D steering filters
Each of these problems used a 2-D steering filter. Fomel (1999) introduced a method to construct a 3-D steering filter. Fomel formed a 3-D steering filter operator by first convolving two 2-D operators. To obtain a minimum-phase filter he performed spectral factorization for each dip component (px , py) pair in the data, significantly increasing the cost of constructing the operator. In order f...
متن کاملRegularizing time tomography with steering filters
Standard depth tomography methods often do not converge, converge slowly, or converge to a model that is geologically unrealistic. By using dip based steering filters rather than standard isotropic regularization operators, convergence speed and final model quality are improved. By formulating the tomography operator in two-way vertical traveltime (τ ,ξ) rather than in depth (z,x) coordinates, ...
