Abstract
A velocity model is generated based upon seismic waveforms via any seismic model building method, such as full waveform inversion or tomography. Data representative of a measurement of a physical attribute of an area surrounding a well is received and an attribute model is generated based upon the velocity model and the data. An image is rendered based upon the attribute model for use with seismic exploration above a region of a subsurface comprising a hydrocarbon reservoir and containing structural or stratigraphic features conducive to a presence, migration, or accumulation of hydrocarbons.
