If singly scattered seismic waves illuminate the entirety of a subsurface structure of interest, standard methods can be applied to image it. In many cases, subsalt imaging for example, a combination of restricted acquisition geometry and imperfect velocity models results in regions of the model that are not illuminated with singly scattered waves. We present an approach to use multiply scatter...

Numerous scientific and analysis problems involve integrating heterogeneous information that is multidimensional, multivariate, and time-dependent. To visualize this data in a 3D environment, we designed a visualization technique called multiple scale small multiples (MSSM), in which each view behaves like an environment in itself. Aggregated multiple views can also form single view visualizati...

The Green’s function is the impulse response of a system and is used to infer the properties of the system from surface measurements. In exploration seismology, imaging algorithms use estimates of the Green’s functions along with surface measurements to image the subsurface, i.e. locate the Earth’s interfaces and its properties, so as to identify valuable energy resources. These conventional im...
