Abstract: A method for determining migration before summation including recording seismic reflection traces, for constituting a collection of traces to be migrated before summation and without weight correction. The traces being classified according to a given criterion and using a velocity model. The method including determining, for each point of interest M in a domain (X, Z), at least one line of slope determined on the basis of a line of slope map, in determining the specular rays associated with one point M and for the line of slope, and in computing the time and amplitude characteristics of each of the specular rays for deducing therefrom the reflection factor in each point M.
