Abstract
Multi-vintage energy mapping selects a first seismic survey data and a second seismic survey dataset from a plurality of seismic survey datasets. The first seismic survey dataset includes a set of first energies associated with a first seismic survey geometry, and the second seismic survey dataset includes a set of second energies associated with a second seismic survey geometry. The first set of energies are mapped from the first seismic survey geometry to the second seismic survey geometry, and the second set of energies are mapped from the second seismic survey geometry to the first seismic survey geometry. An updated first seismic dataset and an updated second seismic dataset are generated such that only energies from the first and second seismic datasets associated with changes in a subsurface are preserved in the updated first and second seismic datasets.
