Predicting Seismic Quality
ESA Geology Project
Integrated EO-based GIS for modelling & predicting quality
This project has been carried out in conjunction with WesternGeco to provide a map of seismic quality, based on the modelling of a series of EO-based thematic layers from within a Geographical Information System (GIS).
The aim of the project is to provide a tool for the seismic acquisition industry that can provide an indication of the quality of seismic data prior to seismic survey. This GIS uses surface texture, lithology, geological structure, dampness and drainage derived from EO data within a model to produce a seismic quality map as shown.
The product will be provided digitally as an ArcView project, along with hardcopy mapsheets and digital imagery.
