Abstract

Summary

Surface wave analysis has been extensively utilized to derive the shear wave velocity profile for various applications. Extraction of dispersion curves (DCs) is an essential step in surface wave analysis. The DCs are typically picked manually on the dispersion image, which can be a time-consuming process and subject to the expertise of the user. We present a fully automatic method for the picking of DCs on the computed dispersion images from the phase shift method. We apply the proposed method on seismic data acquired from Kefalonia, Greece. To check the quality of the results, we compare the automatically and manually picked DCs. The results show that the proposed method can produce similar DCs as the manually picked ones, and reduces the time needed for the picking of DCs from several hours to a few minutes.
