oa Considerations for Cableless System Development and Deployment on High Production Vibroseis Operations

Next generation cableless land acquisition systems are now in use on seismic crews in various<br>countries. Such recorders overcome many of the perceived shortcomings of earlier devices which may<br>have limited uptake for certain applications.<br>These new systems are characterised by improved levels of source control integration, a wider variety<br>of remote unit timing capabilities, abilities to perform remote control of ground stations as well as data<br>QC/status return, and much improved data harvesting techniques.<br>This paper reviews these newest source control and recorder technologies, and describes how both<br>passive and active acquisition in Middle East environments can benefit.
