Seismic Interferometry in Near-Surface Seismics - An Experiment

Seismic interferometry (SI) is the process of generating new seismic records from the cross-correlation of existing records. The interest to SI is growing, but mainly in hydrocarbon exploration and global seismology. The application of SI to shallow seismics could help to extract more information form the data and at the same time save efforts and time in the field. <br>We tested the SI method on a dataset from physical model with a VSP geometry. We could reconstruct direct arrival events and some reflections.
