Abstract
Method for interpolating aliased seismic data to generate shot records at regular shot points. The method involves sorting the data into common offsets to obtain the finer sampling in the common-offset domain, then using DMO to transform the data to zero offset to eliminate azimuth and offset variations, from which densely sampled shot records are reconstructed by an efficient Log-Stretch Inverse Shot Record DMO. The method has ready application to techniques that benefit from input data that are regularly and densely sampled, such as 3-D surface related multiple elimination and shot record wave equation migration.
