− | A key part of the interpretation process for 3-D seismic data is event tracking. To picture this, think of the 3-D seismic data volume as a block of vanilla ice cream with chocolate streaks. Tracking means we follow a streak into the cube and find out where it goes—this is structure mapping. We also keep track of how dark the chocolate is as we follow it—this is amplitude mapping. | + | A key part of the interpretation process for 3-D seismic data is event tracking.
