Abstract: Systems and methods for reducing survey time while enhancing acquired seismic data quality are provided. Data corresponding to plural source lines are acquired simultaneously, using sources at cross-line distance at least equal to their illumination width, with at least one source being towed above a streamer spread.

Abstract: Methods and systems for seismic data acquisition in a survey area use compressed sensing and take into consideration operational limitations. The operational limitations may be related to the equipment used for the survey, the topography of the surveyed area or limitations that otherwise optimize the survey path.
Abstract: The present disclosure includes a method for combining controlled and uncontrolled seismic data. The method includes accessing one or more controlled signals, each controlled signal associated with a respective receiver of a plurality of receivers. The method also includes accessing one or more uncontrolled signals, each uncontrolled signal associated with a respective receiver of the plurality of receivers. The method also includes generating one or more reconstructed signals based on the one or more uncontrolled signals. The method also includes generating a composite image based at least on the one or more controlled signals and the one or more reconstructed signals. The present disclosure may also include associated systems and apparatuses.
