ABSTRACT:
A method for efficiently and accurately migrating seismic data recorded from an area of interest is disclosed. The method utilizes determining displacement values for every output sample in an area of interest, preferably by generating a displacement section from a velocity section and depth model. The displacement values are then used to select a migration aperture for the migration algorithm.
