Abstract:Velocity model building (VMB) using tomography produces one credible realization of an earth model, which, in turn, generates one conceivable subsurface image. The inversion, by its nature, is highly non-linear, and can lead to uncertainty with a single model and image approach. Uncertainty can be quantified by using a model population, rather than a single realization. In this scenario, all models must equally explain the data by producing flat gathers from the inversion. Defining what is an appropriate sampl… Show more
