Abstract

A method and computer system of processing seismic data is presented. A high-resolution Radon transform is defined for use on seismic data. The high-resolution Radon transform is regularized using a semblance measure of the seismic data. The seismic data is processed using the high-resolution Radon transform to enhance desirable features of the seismic data. A tangible representation of the processed seismic data is presented. The semblance measure of the seismic can include a semblance measure along a dimension of the seismic data.
