Abstract
A technique includes receiving sensor data; sorting the data into a gather representation that corresponds to a plurality of shots of an energy source; and determining a signal cone based at least in part on at least one characteristic of the gather representation. The technique includes processing the sensor data in a processor-based machine to attenuate noise to generate data representing a signal based at least in part on the determined signal cone and the gather representation.
