Abstract
Seismic exploration of an underground formation uses seismic excitations to probe the formation's properties such as reflectivity that can be imaged using reverse time migration. Using an equal area spherical binning at reflection points improves and simplifies RTM imaging together with adaptability to the data acquisition geometry, while overcoming drawbacks of conventional cylindrical binning.
