Velocity Analysis

Velocity Analysis is a methodological procedure in seismic exploration that determines the propagation velocity of seismic waves through subsurface media by analyzing travel-time variations across receiver arrays, distinguishing itself from other seismic processing techniques through its focus on velocity model optimization for accurate subsurface imaging.
