Abstract
Methods, apparatuses, and systems are disclosed for datuming multi-component seismic data. In one example of such a method, a plurality of seismic traces are accessed, the plurality of seismic traces including data representative of amplitude and spatial gradient samples of a seismic wavefield at a plurality of recording locations in a medium. Using a computer-based processing unit, a wavefield propagation from the plurality of recording locations through a medium is initialized, using the amplitude and spatial gradient samples of the seismic wavefield. Seismic traces are generated that correspond to the propagated wavefield at defined locations within the medium.
