Seismic True-Amplitude Imaging

A rich literature exists on computational methods based on wave equations for seismic imaging and earth-parameter estimation. Somewhat lost in the advance to progressively more sophisticated computational techniques are the intuitive ideas with roots that reach back to Hagedoorn and are based on ray theory, the geometry of data, and the geometry of wave propagation. In "Seismic True-Amplitude Imaging" (SEG Geophysical Developments Series No. 12), the authors describe their research of many ...
