ONE TOUCH DATA ACQUISITION

摘要

A seismic spread has a plurality of seismic stations positioned over a te rrain of interest and a controller programmed to automate the data acquisiti on activity In one aspect, the present disclosure provides a method for form ing a seismic spread by developing a preliminary map of suggested locations for seismic devices and later forming a final map having in-field determined location data for the seismic devices Each suggested location is represente d by a virtual flag used to navigate to each suggested location A seismic de vice is placed at each suggested location and the precise location of the ea ch placed seismic devices is determined by a navigation device The determine d locations are used to form a second map based on the determined location o f the one or more of the placed seismic devices Using the virtual flag elimi nates having to survey the terrain and place physical markers and later remo ve them
