Abstract
Seismic node systems can be configured for acquiring seismic sensor data with an array of seismic receivers or nodes deployable in a survey area, each receiver or node having a seismic sensor for acquiring the seismic sensor data, a clock, a controller and local memory. The seismic sensor can data characterize a seismic wavefield proximate the seismic receivers in the survey area. Quality control data can be generated based on the seismic sensor data and associated timing information provided by the respective clock, and incorporated into a seismic data flow for recording in the local memory.
