Abstract
Method for determining acceptability of sensor locations used to perform a seismic survey. In one implementation, the method includes obtaining a first set of reference data, generating a first output trace from a second set of reference data estimated from the first set of reference data at a plurality of planned sensor locations, generating a second output trace from a third set of reference data estimated at a plurality of actual sensor locations and comparing the second output trace with the first output trace to determine whether the variation between the second output trace and the first output trace is less than a predetermined value.
