ABSTRACT:
A method for controlling the position and shape of marine seismic streamer cables, whereby a plurality of real time signals from a marine seismic data acquisition system and a plurality of threshold parameters from an input device are received. The real time signals are compared to the threshold parameters to determine if the streamer cables should be repositioned. The streamer cables are repositioned when the real time signals exceed the threshold parameters.
