Abstract
A technique includes obtaining different sets of data, which are provided by seismic sensors that share a tow line in common. Each data set is associated with a different spatial sampling interval. The technique includes processing the different sets of data to generate a signal that is indicative of a seismic event that is detected by the set of towed seismic sensors. The processing includes using the different spatial sampling intervals to at least partially eliminate noise from the signal.
