Abstract

Vertical resolution of reflection seismic record is better to horizontal resolution as opposed to other geophysical methods. In order to detect steep slope stratum and complex geological structures as well as hidden rock bodies, and improve horizontal resolution of seismic record, experiment and application of surface seismic tomography technology have been made. The paper summaries basic principles of nonlinear surface seismic tomography and discusses the inversion results of seismic geological modeling and real seismic records.
