A seismic data acquisition module includes a motherboard that is environmentally protected as a independent unit by an integral sheath, envelope or encapsulating cover. The motherboard unit is suitably configured for rapid and frequent manual removal from the interior cavity of a protective outer housing for compact and more secure packaging as well as more convenient transport over great distances, if necessary, to successively different survey sites. At a new survey site, the motherboard units may be inserted into more bulky but also more rugged or waterproof outer housings that are provided with environmentally tight cable connectors. The outer housings, having a capital value of only a fraction of the electronic motherboard units, may have arrived at the new site at a different time and may even be distributed in the new survey field at the time the motherboard units arrive.
