Efficient Vectorisation Solutions for Seismic Data

The Importance of Vectorisation

In the field of seismic data processing, valuable data often goes missing due to mislabeled or unlabeled seismic tapes. This leads to the unfortunate disposal of tapes, leaving hardcopies as the only record of the significant efforts involved in acquiring them. Mobilizing an acquisition crew to remote areas for new seismic data collection is costly, especially when previous acquisitions exist.

Introducing Hoppa: Our Vectorisation Application

If a hardcopy remains, its value can be significantly enhanced by converting it into a digital version. This digitization process, known as vectorisation, is expertly handled by our application, Hoppa.

Key Features of Hoppa:

  • Intelligent Trace Tracking: Each seismic trace is accurately tracked from top to bottom, recreating the section in digital form.
  • SEGY Output: The program outputs a SEGY version with navigation data in the trace headers, ready for import into the workstation.
  • Enhanced Value: Transforms hardcopy data into a digital format for seamless integration into interpretation projects.
