Abstract

An example method includes at least partially positioning within a wellbore an optical fiber of a distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) data collection system. Seismic data from the DAS data collection system may be received. The seismic data may include seismic traces associated with a plurality of depths in the wellbore. A quality factor may be determined for each seismic trace. One or more seismic traces may be removed from the seismic data based, at least in part, on the determined quality factors.
