ABSTRACT:
A method for locating an ocean bottom seismic cable is disclosed wherein a series of shots from a seismic pulse generator are fired. The distance to one seismic pulse detector is determined for each shot defining a spherical surface upon which the detector may be located. The intersection of the spherical surfaces determine the exact location of the detector. Depth detectors may be used to eliminate one half of the possible locations for each shot.
