Abstract
A method includes acquiring a first set of data before a proppant is pumped into a wellbore. The method also includes acquiring a second set of data after the proppant is pumped into the wellbore. The method also includes determining a weighted average median of the first set of data and of the second set of data. The method also includes determining a location of the proppant in a subterranean formation based at least partially upon the weighted average medians.
