Abstract
A wavepacket transform is used to compress earthquake records, crosswell radar<br>data and crosswell seismic data. Results show that this transform can compress the<br>data by factors of 4 to 8. The speed of the transform is comparable to that of an PPT,<br>so this method may significantly reduce the data storage requirements for 3-D engineering<br>geophysical surveys (shallow 3-D seismic or shallow GPR surveys).
