Abstract
Summary
Common image gathers are used in building velocity models, inverting for anisotropy parameters, and analyzing reservoir attributes. In this paper, we offer a new perspective on image gathers, where we glean information from the image volume via efficient matrix-vector products. The proposed formulation make the computation of full subsurface image volume feasible.
We illustrate how this matrix-vector product can be used to construct objective functions for automatic MVA.
