<p>A system and method for acquiring seismic data is provided that utilizes a plurality of field station (data acquisition) units (208) placed over a region of interest and a remote central unit (202). The system and method, in one aspect, determine a condition associated with each of a plurality of preselected attributes relating to the acquisition of the seismic data at each of the field station units (208), generate messages at each field station (208) when the condition of any particular attribute meets a selected criterion, and transmit the generated messages to a remote unit wirelessly (202). The system and methods provide efficient use of the available bandwidth and avoid collisions among messages transmitted simultaneously by several field station units (202).</p> |
