A novel method of geophysical exploration is provided whereby shot points and receiver locations are positioned such that seismic data resulting therefrom can advantageously be processed employing 3-D processing techniques to obtain a better image of the earth's subsurface structure. In one embodiment, shot points, or alternatively, receiver locations are arranged along generally sawtooth or zig zag lines so that common midpoint bins of seismic signals include a generally uniform distribution of source-receiver pair azimuths. In another embodiment, both the shot points and receiver locations are arrayed along generally alternating, sawtooth or zig zag lines.
