Abstract

A method of processing geophysical seismic data so as to enhance its evaluation and interpretation. A plurality of response waveform characteristics are developed from a seismic signal. The response waveform characteristics can provide empirical basis for correlating a seismic signal fo formation geology and lithology. In accordance with the present invention, the response waveform characteristics are chromatically quantified and the intensity of which can be modulated so as to enhance the signal-to-noise ratio of the displayed response waveform characteristics.
