Abstract
An exemplary embodiment of the present invention provides a method for interpolating seismic data. The method includes collecting seismic data of two or more types over a field (), determining an approximation to one of the types of the seismic data (), and performing a wave-field transformation on the approximation to form a transformed approximation (), wherein the transformed approximation corresponds to another of the collected types of seismic data. The method may also include setting the transformed approximation to match the measured seismic data of the corresponding types at matching locations (), performing a wave-field transformation on the transformed approximation to form an output approximation (), and using the output approximation to obtain a data representation of a geological layer ().
