โœฆ Synopsis


Seismic migration is the process by which an acoustic seismic wavefield, containing scatteredldiffracted waves recorded as a function of time, is converted into a focussed image of the corresponding spatial distribution of scatters/diffractors. One method of implementing this is by reverse-time extrapolation of the recorded wavefield using the data as boundary values in a finite-difference solution of the scalar wave equation, plus application of an excitation-time imaging condition. Conceptually, and numerically, this approach is precisely the inverse of the corresponding forward problem of simulation of the response of a given model to an acoustic source.
