A mobile docking device is configured to receive seismic acquisition units. The mobile docking device includes a container having a front opening, a docking module located within the container, the docking module having plural docking bays, each docking bay being configured to receive one of the seismic acquisition units through the front opening, a removable front wall configured to be attached to the container to cover the front opening to secure the seismic acquisition units, and handles attached to the container. The removable front wall biases the seismic acquisition units to maintain a direct electrical connection between tubular pins of the plural docking bays and pins of the seismic acquisition units during transport of the mobile docking device.

Mobile docking device for seismic acquisition nodes and method

A seismic node for collecting seismic data, the seismic node including a base configured to define a chamber having an open face; a main electronic board having a processor, the main electronic board being placed inside the chamber; a battery pack configured to supply electrical power to the main electronic board and placed inside the chamber; and a digital cover that attaches to the open side of the base to seal the chamber, and a sensor device located inside the chamber and attached to a wall of the base to form a digital field unit, or an analog cover that attaches to the open side of the base to seal the chamber, and an analog sensor electrically attached to the analog cover to form an analog field unit.
