Summary In the past decade, 3D reflection seismology has replaced 2D seismology almost entirely in the seismic industry. Recording 3D surveys has become the norm instead of the exception. The application of 2D seismology is limited mostly to reconnaissance surveys or to locations where recording 3D data is still prohibitively expensive, such as in rough mountains and wild forests. The book covers all the important aspects of 3D imaging. It links the migration methods with data acquisition and velocity estimation, because they are inextricably intertwined in practice. Data geometries strongly influence the choice of 3D imaging methods. The most common acquisition geometries are presented at the start, with the relationships between imaging methods and acquisition geometries discussed throughout the text.
