Abstract
The presently disclosed technique includes a method that compensates for constantly changing headings as occur during coil shooting acquisition. In one aspect, the presently disclosed techniques include a computer-readable program storage medium comprising: accessing a set of heading data for a seismic spread acquired while traversing a curved path; and normalizing the accessed heading data to a dynamic frame of reference defined relative to the seismic spread.
